Every camper dealer will tell you your current truck can do it. Too many people justify it, too.

Agree with David. Once you leave the lot, it's your responsibility. Dealers are there to just advise you, and collect the commission.

Also I think a lot of people don't take into account. Passenger weight, water weight, gear weight in the tow vehicle and in the towed vehicle, or understand weight distribution over the axles.

Alright, hope to adding pictures of the one I picked up here shortly. I don't have it stored at the house, or it would already be posted. All I grabbed was a quick shot of it as we pulled out of Delaware with it. Wanted to stop by here though and make sure ya'll know about the spring camping trip out in uwharrie this year. We have a group camp site booked for Easter weekend. Lots of space for trucks and trailers. Also a bath house close for those who just want to tent it.

So it’s not a true “camper” but it has living quarters and a garage all on wheels

the youngin there wasnt mine... belonged to the people i went campin with, he liked my tent better than his lol... was a fun trip except the last day my back got ticked off... so was a very painful ride home... the day we got there it was in the 80's but during the night it fell to 45... next couple days the highest it got was mid 50's but at night was falling to low 40's mid 30's.. the last night there it was 36*... we were supposed to stay one more night.. but temps werent getting any better and it "trying" to rain... was a good thing we left early because later that same day and during the night they got 3 ft of snow at the campground...
