Picked up this glamper over the weekend.

For all the Internet weight police out there, yes this rig fits well within my factory derated sticker limits.

Sneil...... Very nice rig

You will love the dually......

Back in Dec 2014 I purchased a 2015 F-350 DRW..... replacing a 2011 F-350 SRW.... The Dually made a huge difference in stable towing, especially in high winds..... I tow a 42 ft Montana 5th wheel....

Nothing wrong with a small rig...it’s not the size it’s how you use it! We can go places those hotels on wheels wouldn’t dream of going.

Bigger, we have found, isn't always better. We have been tuned down in several CGs that couldn't find a space for our now mid size, 38 footer and long bed truck.

Smaller is sometimes easier for many reasons, both look just fine.
