I didn't say impossible; the words were "NEARLY impossible". The two words that really apply here are- "WHY BOTHER?" There are tons of trucks around that far more easily lend themselves to conversion. Why create obstacles when you will have enough of them show up on their own? Medent is right about the practice and commitment involved in backing pull trailers; after you practice enough to get good at it, you will want to be committed to one of our finer, uh, facilities where everything will be in a nice fog after a day or so. Other than that you'll be fine.....
Oh, about the suspension. If it says "spring suspension" you should read that as "NO air suspension", and you really need air suspension on ANY truck used for RV conversion. There is really no room for debate on this.
