Saw this suggestion for trucks with caps with windows on both that open to permit ventilation to the bed. Not sure how well it would work. Cheap at $40 https://www.custompickup.com/shop/index.php?l=product_detail&p=178

Being new to AC and truck camping in general, I understand there is an undertaking known as "leveling". QUESTION - What is a reasonable height to plan to level too? One inch? One foot? One corner or two? With sticks and stone available, plus a plethora of intelligently design devices, it can...

Hello all, I was wondering what some opinions were regarding the following topic. I'm getting ready to purchase a new fifth wheel (Impression 315MB) this week. My tow vehicle is a 2500 Ram short bed and I'll be using the Anderson hitch. I have concerns regarding the grade of our driveway and...

I've been trying to figure out a toad for an upcoming motorhome transition. I really need a truck because of the whole sewer bladder and my wife being present for one of the worst accidents I had with it. I'm considering a 2018-2020 F150 or Ram/Chevy 1500. I think they need to be 4x4 to be...

So had a local dealer tell me that a mid single voile 630 can out maneuver my dodge mega cab 3500? At $18000CAD to single a truck I don’t want to do it twice! Not to brag as I’m sure there’s lots of great drivers here but I can stab my fifth wheel in a lot of places. I did where I park in...

As the title suggests I am considering a new toy hauler and I want to hear from those who have experienced this. I have a Dodge Ram 2500 Cummins. 116k miles. Great shape. Pulls my current 5th wheel like a dream. We are looking at the Forest River Rogue Vengeance 351 or 4007. They are DRW of...

Hello. My wife and I currently own a 2318G popup that we tow with a 5.7L Durango. My wife would like me to buy a truck as she feels it's more suited as a camping vehicle (the Durango is her car and she likes to keep in in mint condition :rolleyes: ). Personally, I don't care much for full...

Has anyone installed the Titan "TITAN SIDEKICK" 15-gallon portable Liquid Tank (5040015)? Portable means you screw in the SIDEKICK to the side and floor of the truck bed with self-tapping screws and leave it there. I have a 2020 F250 6.2 das engine, 34 gallon fuel tank. Being told that you...

I'm wanting to replace the pop up camper bulkhead window that aligns with the truck's rear sliding window. I need one that is removable on the camper so that I can pass through from the camper to the cab. Any one know where to find one? My existing camper window is 12.5" x 31". My...

I'm kind of feeling like my truck needs a name. It has an outsized presence, both physically and mentally, in my life now. But I'm having a hard time thinking of a name, and also a lot of names are gender-specific. I'm not sure if my truck has a gender. But if it did, it wouldn't be female...

I bought an older Onan 4.0 BFA and converted it to propane for my toter build. it produces power but bounces between 122.x to 123.x. Is this ok? Is there a simple filter/regulator/inverter solution to make it a clean steady power? Also, my m2 has only one stack and was thinking of adding...

How do you folks handle breaking in a new truck? Mine is due by end of the month. Realize that owner's manual is a good start........but please suggest any tips or tricks. Thanks.

Reading some recent posts where people were buying one-ton trucks made me wonder -- what is the practical difference between a 3/4-ton truck and a one-ton truck? I mean, if you got the very basic bare minimum for each. I have an F-250 and if you go online to look at the general specs, you'll...

I have been going to the Ford site and building my F-450 XLT for almost a year now. Just went on this morning and the price has gone way up. A 2021 priced about 2 months ago with what I wanted was $64k. Same 2022 truck priced today is $77k. Both are MSRP. Ah geesh.

Not wanting to hijack the thread linked above about somebody's new TV, I'll create a new topic. I'm contemplating placing an order for an F150 XLT Crew w/ HDPP and Ecoboost. With added options, you can get an XLT almost up to the level of a Lariat, but can't get electric tow mirrors. That's...

I am upgrading from a GMC Sierra 1500 to a RAM 2500. Besides measuring from the ground to the receiver ball on the old truck and getting the new to match it, is there anything else that I need to do? Will I have to go through the process of setting up the WDH again?

My RAM came with a framed bed cover that locks down to the side rails--just wondering if anyone else had experience with a bed cover while towing and can tell any difference in handling between cover/no cover while towing? :gathering: Thanks for input! FRTT Man

I have a 2004 GMC Sierra HD2500 Diesel. I am pulling a FR Sierra HT fifth wheel. My truck is not charging the battery while traveling. I don't know if the truck has ever been setup to charge. I bought the truck about 8 months ago along with the camper. I check all my fuses and none are blew...

Hi everyone, I'm building a 36' long coach on a freightliner chassis and would like a reference or rule of thumb for rear overhang. I'm aware that shorter wheelbase will turn sharper, but the tail will swing wide. Longer wheel base should ride better, but won't turn as sharp and can negatively...

We had a little problem before with tree branches scraping the side of the rig. However, now that we are pulling a 13'6" tall stacker, getting out of the neighborhood and down some roads is a challenge. Anyone have a paint, film or laminated material that does not show scratches as badly...

I own a '08 Dodge 2500 Cummins with 205,000 miles. I want to drive from the East Coast to Yellowstone in Sept of 2022. What advice do you have for preparing the truck for the trip? (We own a Forest River Vibe, with an EW around 7,100 lbs.) The truck AC is broken. The electronic fuel injector...

My son with his 2016 Ram said the truck knows how many miles he pulled his camper. I started looking around the evic on my 2014 Ram and found mine did record trailer mileage also. If you go to your trailer brake settings and arrow down to find it. Stormy
