Abstract: A camper suitable for mounting on a motor vehicle is disclosed and includes a generally rectangular frame which supports first and second living compartments. The frame carries means for releasably and adjustably securing it to the bumpers of the vehicle and supporting it thereon and these means are also capable of supporting the camper in a freestanding arrangement separate from the vehicle. The first and second living compartments are alternately collapsible and expandable so as to be converted from a traveling or storage mode to an occupancy mode. Additionally, the second compartment is capable of being telescoped into the first compartment when it is collapsed thereby rendering the overall structure extremely compact for purposes of transportation and also achieving the advantage of virtually eliminating any impairment of the visibility of the operator of the vehicle.
