Buying a Palomino Slide on/off Camper is often the “easiest” and most “affordable” way to see the great outdoors, especially if you already own a bakkie. They can even be mounted and towed on a flat bed trailer. Palomino slide on campers also have the best resale value in Africa by far.
Palomino strongly recommends you check your vehicle owners manual or contact the manufacturer for your bakkies capabilities.
