We are GFC

At Go Fast Campers, we have an obsession with trucks. We believe that a truck is the modern day equivalent of a cowboy's horse: A truck is a tool, a sidekick, and the means to find adventures near and far. We make campers that will turn your truck into the ultimate adventure machine that plays just as hard as it works. Like a good truck, our campers are a minimal tour de force. Just what you need and nothing you don't, built to last and work hard. Adaptable to whatever your adventure demands. Designed and manufactured by an eclectic group of truck obsessives in a high-tech manufacturing compound situated at the foot of the Bridger Mountains in Montana. At GFC we pride ourselves on our commitment to efficiency, accuracy, and professionalism in all aspects of our operations.
