truck

Bought a 2020 Salem FSXrt last year to haul my Harley with my ‘18 F-150 xlt, 3.5 w/10 speed. Chose it for its light weight, 4800#s, and a layout we both like. According to specs and rightfully so, the truck pulled it effortlessly and we went on 3 trips WITHOUT the bike in the back without so...

I**Updated to reflect that I sold the truck** I’m the third owner of the camper and I’ve driven this cross-country twice and spent about 80+ nights in it since 2016. It’s a good rig, but recently developed issue with a leak in the roof. You will need to fix the leak, but then will enjoy...

I own a Salem Cruise Lite 262bhxl and I had been Towing it with a half ton Silverado with the crew cab and short bed. Recently I purchased a 2500 hd Silverado with the double cab and 8 foot bed. It tows the camper with such improved stability, I can barely believe it. Of course the 2500 has a...

I bought a 2004 Dodge Ram 1500 as my TV. Been doing the job well so far. But, I had notices a slight shudder from the truck. It only did this when starting out from a stop into a turn. Left or right, didn't matter. No shudder when starting out straight. I was racking my brain for what...

I pull my Wildwood Xlite with a 1500. With the truck and camper fully loaded I’m near the towing capacity. I’ve been using a Nashbar tailgating bike pad to haul 4-5 bikes but notice some sag (see photo). I’m thinking about getting a truck bed bike rack but will have to get one that requires...

I have a Geo Pro 15 and pull it with a Silverado 1500. My first time with a trailer and the truck seems to struggle with the camper. Salesman said with your truck you won’t even feel the trailer. Not what I’m experiencing. Mileage cut in half as well. Any advice.

Dear All, As I packed up this morning I could not find the keychain with all my outside camper keys for my 2014 Rockwood A122S, A-frame camper. I have been through everything with a fine toothed comb and they are gone. Searched the entire campsite for an hour to no avail. The only key I still...
