    Funny thing is, I hadn't drive a semi in over 20 years. My first test drive in this truck was 1800 miles... Talk about figure it out and roll with it. After a few hours of driving I was able to only use the clutch taking off and then just slide it in the gear on the fly.

    22' box, super 10, we plan on a bathroom and a shower.... Sleeping over the garage is my plan... About 14-16' worth vehicle inside. Will likely squeeze a fridge up in the sleeper and a microwave as well. We kinda 'rough it' when we go. We spend most of our time on the trail or outside...

    Dropped garage

    I'm looking into this type of modification. What would be the maximum tow rating for a hitch attached to something like this? I'd love the additional room but am concerned about the 12-14k of a trailer full of jeeps. Thanks. It looks great
