Why is Northwood coming out with a front nose cap now? ![]() Front nose caps on truck campers have been around for some time. One of the stand-out headlines for 2024 is the new front nose caps. Prior to our arrival, we talked to Lance Rinker, Director of Materials and Marketing, and Tony Carman, Draftsman for Northwood Manufacturing about the updates.Ībove: Two 2024 Arctic Fox 1140 campers with the new front nose caps Northwood is already in production with one of the most significant model year updates we’ve seen since starting Truck Camper Magazine in 2007. With a few adjustments to our schedule, we visited Northwood in La Grande, Oregon to see the changes for ourselves.įolks, it’s legit. ![]() Lucky for us, we were heading toward the Northwest when Northwood contacted us about the 2024 updates. Things got more interesting when I learned that Northwood is also offering an optional 600-watt solar panel system on their Arctic Fox and Wolf Creek lines, made significant changes to their roofs, and managed to add more storage in their cabovers. This is where my brain says, “Not just wow, but how are they doing that?” It’s one thing to imagine the already luxury-appointed Arctic Fox line adding these features, but Northwood is also adding fiberglass front nose caps, 400-watts of solar, thermal pane windows and – holy moley – 8-cubic foot refrigerators to the Wolf Creek 850 and 890. On top of that, Northwood is matching or exceeding its premium competition with new fiberglass nose caps and thermal pane windows – again, all standard for 2024. And very few camper manufacturers are offering 12-volt compressor refrigerators standard, much 8 cubic foot models. To be clear, nobody is offering 400-watts of solar standard. Even then it seemed impossible that the La Grande, Oregon company was leap-frogging the production truck camper world in so many areas. I had to read the 2024 Northwood Manufacturing standard update list twice to believe it. You read that right – all standard! Oh, and there’s a new roof… Northwood Manufacturing announces huge 2024 standard updates for Arctic Fox and Wolf Creek truck campers including fiberglass nose caps, 400-watts of solar, thermal pane windows and 8-cubic foot 12-volt compressor refrigerators. ![]()
