Well I would suggest against a covered u haul because these campers are wide and heavy it will be really awkward to push that into a covered uhaul. A truck with a flatbed will probably be your easiest bet. The truck will have plenty of attachment points and you will not have to line it up...

You've gotta give us a bit more details. Why are you renting a truck? Did you buy this camper and need to get it home? Why cant you use your own truck? Does the camper have attachment points for jacks? Is the truck a flatbed/uhaul? Details!!!

I would check colorado and california craigslist's alot. In my searching that's where I found 3 possibles and one of the three became mine.

It is really hard to find a used Alaskan that isn't super old. People dont let go of these things because they are extremely rad and fantastic. I was lucky enough to find a used one in my area a 2016 but I spent a year searching craigslist and facebook marketplace, RV trader literally every...

Hello to all, I am installing the Happi Jac truck bed attachment system into my new 2008 GMC Sierra extended cab. Front half went fine with no issues, but I am having a brutal time with the "bumper supports" According to the paperwork I was sent the correct parts for my truck but the bar is...

Didnt properly attach picture, oops, here it is.

Well I have travelled from, Virginia to Oklahoma so far and should be in Colorado at the great sand dunes later tonight. Everything has been amazing so far with the new diesel. I'm getting 19-20 on the highway 14-16 in town empty with no camper. The vehicle is a dream to drive, the allison...

Well just a little update, I purchased a 2008 gmc sierra duramax. Hopefully it arrives before I leave for work. If not I'll post s pic when I get back! Happy camping everyone!

Hello everyone! This is my 2016 Alaskan Camper! It is the 7' model! Right now it is sitting on top of a 2004 silverado 2500hd with 6.0 vortec. That might be changing to a 2008 duramax here shortly if I don't get cold feet!!

I just read up on the GV OD. That sounds like quite the transmission enhancement! More focused towards older 3 and 4 speed transmissions? To double the gearing? I didn't read much, correct me if I'm wrong. And I'm going to guess that it's vehicle speed is the greatest mpg reducer due to wind...

Have you done any significant modifications to your LBZ? Oversize tires? Delete EGR?

Where did you get that toolbox bed that is awesome! I've been looking for either that or a flatbed. What is the weight of that box? And beautiful set up you have!

Post #13 6.0 with 4.1 gears. Any stock 250phd is 4.1. Any stock duramax is 3.73. Idk about dodge ke ford. What are you driving??

This is exactly what I am hoping to achieve!

If I buy a diesel I'll sell you mine, I'm in Nor Cal.

Hello fellow Alaskan campers! I'm new to the forum. I have a 2016 seven foot camper sitting on a 2500hd 6.0 vortec silverado. The truck handles it no problems cruises up hill in a higher RPM. My only problem is I like to drive out on deep logging roads and it seems as though I'm always almost...
