I have a 5th wheel hitch and rails that was used three times, but if I get one, I'm gonna put a goose neck adapter on it. I have the flat bed now, and I don't want the rails on it.

Im in way over my head right now. Somethings gotta go and no wants the IDI. I bought the camper because things were going good and everything turned bad quick. Not trying to sound like a suzy downer but that's how it goes. Im honestly to the point where Id sell the Powerstroke if I knew Id get out of it what I owe

Sounds like you got a good set up Bill. The rails suck because you have to put holes in the bed...

I can't follow this?? LOL Walked around a junk year today and there was a couple of fine looking campers in there. A couple of Van conversions and a Dodge motorhome. They only needed a little work, LOL

There was a couple of dually fenders for $100 that I'm tempted. The drivers side was smashed in a little. I should have taken a picture.

I could use some dually fenders for the IDI. That's the biggest flaw on that truck

Iv rubbed mine several times. Heck, when I had a truck camper, I caught one of the hold down hooks on my fender flare and nearly ripped it off. I shrugged and said it matches the rest of the fender

To me, in good condition, yes. Because I need them lol.

For someone to buy and have lying around, probably not IMO lol. You can look at it this way though: a new set is well over $500

Sorry about my ramblings last night guys. I gotta little bummed looking at the check book... Im sure the last thing you guys wanna do is get on here and read something your wife would say lol

Its less working on the truck now as it is paying for it... Let along trying to save a little to pay you.

But its ok. Ill find a way though it. I realized at a young age money is like the stock market. You can have a bunch this month, and none next. Then a bunch, then none. Stuff has gotta improve sometime

I would think so. I am wondering if he entered the mileage in the price field by accident. The description says it has 70k miles on it so I bet that's what happened. Some people are better with technology than others, lol.

Gotta be, haha.

Got my vacuum pump changed last night. It went out on Sunday. Holy brakes! It must have been on it's way out for a while. My truck stops now, it's weird.

Good point. I didn't catch that lol. Usually people get type happy and put an extra 0 on it but I didn't figure it was a $7000 truck either lol
