Who is this for?
I set out to write this guide with my past-self in mind. My goal was to create a resource I would’ve loved to have to navigate the many questions and decisions leading up to my SUV camper build and the details to execute the plan. 
 
This is for a beginner that has no idea where to start, or for a more skilled human who is interested in the details of an existing build to further their own. I hope to provide you with a good headstart on your SUV camper build.
 
This guide is based on the camper I built in my 2006 GMC Yukon (2nd Generation). While every vehicle model and year is different in shape and size, you will find valuable information for any camper design (e.g. the solar and electrical system).
 
You might find the following models to be comparable to a GMC Yukon: Chevy Tahoe, Ford Expedition, Nissan Armada, Jeep Wagoneer, Chevy Suburban, GMC Yukon XL or Denali.
