I believe that camper is for a mini-truck, and he has it in an F-150. Doesn't fit, but that won't stop some folks.

No doubt - there 's about a 10" gap between the inside of the truck's bed and the camper. I thought you may have seen that thing Bill, since you were just a bit ahead of us.

Incidentally, the traffic sucked coming home...

Did the traffic get worse on the 405? It got better for us once we got past the split.

No, I didn't notice that thing. I did notice 3 trucks caravaning with travel trailers, all from Alberta, all GMC diesels. Blind leading the blind we figured.

No, it was fine from there on in -

We saw all those Duramax's - they sure did have some dinky tires on them.

i think that most newer trucks have that problem from the factory.
