Truck/camper/furry pal/location= win Welcome and enjoy

When i began doing the leg-work for our present setup, i had some initial concerns regarding cog. My friends have may flatbeds on their work trucks and i had been around them to see how loads were managed. Our camper was built with the vast majority of the load in front of the rear tires. The...

Would love to spend some time in that area.

Once again, your trip reports get me even more antsy to find another desert spot. Have briefly toured VOF this spring but know i need to get back there. Maybe this Jan/Feb when i head to that area for a race. Funny you mentioned aliens, had a strange what if thought while camping there this past...

Many factors to consider, lots of good advice. For us, it was how many people (2) 1 dog. How long we could be in camper without wanting to kill each other. Extra space has been a blessing in bad weather. If camper will be on most of the time, a flatbed is a good option. ATC will do about...

Hi, Our build started out different from the start. 7ft wide by 9ft long flatbed. cabinets/counter height, depth etc I hate hunching over to wash dishes/cook. No dinnette fridge on a slide out under two massive drawers At the time the stove and sink were reversed from how I wanted them, Two...

Great work!

Missing Link, Still driving me crazy, spent a ton of effort to see them and a few other animals and zilch. My trip was somewhat hampered by my intention to drive the routes we did. Usually I am a journey guy not a destination guy. Oh well, planning for next years trip is underway and will most...

Love reading these, reminds me though how much of a poor job I do. Thanks for the inspiration w

Made it back, 9,070 miles in 32 (not nearly enough) days. Fantastic trip, the Dempster and Dalton were as awesome as I had imagined. Fires did dampen our days in the interior, but Valdez saved that part. One crazily destroyed tire, and a hitch extension snapping in half were the only issues...

BTW I’ve passed about a gazillion for will and ATC Camper’s have been mostly on the Cassiar Stewart Hyder etc

Am towing the trailer Keeps the interior less cluttered Plus wife likes her vino

Cassiar Dempster Top of the World Dalton Denali Parks Glenn Alcan I leave tomorrow have planned on this trip for a very long time. Any members up that way and see this setup please stop by and say hello w

Dang, Was just getting ready to call them about getting in and out of Juneau the last week in August.

Travel a lot with both the trailer and without, depends on your needs/wants. Mexico for a month, yes Alaska maybe 3 or 4 days most likely no. Photo for giggles

FWIW, My ATC flatbed camper is held on by 5 bolts, two of them are accessed through the propane tank openings, one is in a small cabinet, two of them are in the open area in the rear of the camper. Takes me about 30 minutes to get them out, mainly due to the height of my bed. Not sure of the...

ElSol, Flatbed was buillt by Cascade Auto and Truck Body in Eugene, OR. Protech aluminum, 7'wx9'l Entire bed and boxes were bed-lined. 3 years of abuse and it still looks great. They let me design the box in the back the way i wanted. Hear you on coils, i think i would go the helwig sway bar...

I have three super dutys, two with beds, one without. If i keep my dually it to will have a flatbed. As will all the trucks i buy going forward. Easier to load, work out of, off of. And i love the extra room my camper has. This being said, a flatbed with a regular truck camper has tons of room...

Don't overlook forest service campgrounds outside the park, also some nice dispersed camping as well. Bowman, Kintla are my faves, long drive yes but a better experience in my book. Many Glacier is fantastic. Going to the Sun road is awesome, I always drive west to east. Prefer the views that...

To add two cents, They build what you want. FWC are great, just more than some of us want. I wanted mine the way I wanted it, for better or worse, they gave me what I asked for. And to this day, are still great to work with. Always available for a question. w

If you are speaking about a propane heater, the detectors do work. For me the main issue can be excess condensation. I have a regular furnace that is vented, but also have a wave six catalytic that I will use to augment heat in the winter.

WoW, am heading up there this August and have been wondering if anyone on here was going. Guess I know now. w

I have a similar setup. Mine was installed during construction. I use a wave 6, in the winter it really helps to keep the furnace from cycling on/off as much. I have run it all night, but do ventilate a great deal and also use two additional co monitors. Works for me.
