Thanks for sharing. In one of your next episodes can you do a walk around inside and out. I really like the set up and would like to hear why you chose the flat bed vs standard bed. Cheers, Happy New Year.
You find some great spots. Would love to hear in your video where you are camping. (States, areas) A little narrative would be very cool. Thank for sharing.
I like finding camping spots where nobody has camped before. Less trash and public toilets. The area’s I camp are in Oregon in the Willamette forest and surrounding BLM lands. Thanks for checking out my videos.
My rig is a chevy 3500 gas payload stock #4400, wet weight of my arctic fox roughly the same. Added timbrens (awesome stability & no squat) #4080 rated tires and #4500 rated wheels. Ive been across the country many times and always tow a boat or atv. Youve got a great set up. There will always be payload police keyboard warriors. Proof is in the pudding. Enjoy!
Nice camper...do you know your front axle & rear axle weight? How about your GVW? As long as you're under the front & rear axle ratings & the GVWR, You're OK. Obviously you're truck is lifted big time, great for off road clearance, but not so good for stability.I would be a little concerned with the wind & buffeting from 18 wheelers. IMHO. Safe travels.. I don't think I heard any audio on your video, is that correct?
The frame on that Chevy is toast. Between the stress fractures and that payload, it’ll give out soon. Those trucks aren’t meant to work. Not safe to drive a rig like that on the road.
Thanks for your input. I know the camper looks huge. The weight sticker on the camper says 2,983lbs with fresh water tank full and propane tanks full. I have installed airbags, rear sway bar, 12ply tires and bilstein shocks. Most often I don’t even fill my fresh water tank up when traveling. It might look bad but it’s not as bad as it looks. Truck drives great down the road, I take it a little slower around corners and wind roads.
