    RV LIFE Multisite Forum, Wander The West I don't have a truck, camper or idea...help me out

    It was a crazy find owned by a crazy guy in PA who "collected" cars. The thing was immaculate. Sadly I still had to drop $20k on it....but still worth it. the V8 in a tacoma sized body is awesome. I have power to spare.

    Hey Folks, I don't really like leaving a thread unfinished so thought I would stop by and let you know that I finally got my flatbed. Wonderful combination. While probably over GVWR the acceleration, braking and handling is FAR better than my Landcruiser so I cannot complain. Even the MPG is...

    So I finally found my truck, an 05 Tundra with no rust and 33k miles in phantom grey. It will look great with the silver spur camper. My goodness is it BIG though. I could not imagine going any bigger lol Very comfortable truck though. Now if FWC will STOP pushing my order back and I can get a...

    Hey Klahanie, With the 1st gen tundra I have essentially a v8 Tacoma. Same weight/footprint but more power. I have a smaller flatbed too, but after sitting in the one at Mainline I found the room to be HUGE as opposed to the Hawk slidein with was cavelike to me. The big thing with storage is if...

    i jumped, got a fleet flatbed and looking now at an 06 tundra in tx with no rust in beautiful shape. Yeah, I know some of you folks think it’s a f350 or go home but for the last year I have been 1000lbs over gvwr on an old rusty landcruiser so not too worried about 500 or so on a tundra with a...

    Yeah, I wish Toyota would bring their Utes or Heliux to the US so I could have a proper truck but for now the Tundra is the best option. I've had domestic and don't trust them. My old 06 Jeep broke down a LOT more than my rusty and formerly abused (by prior owner) Landcruiser 80 with 265k on the...

    Loving the replys. Just want to add that a slide in is not practical for us as full timers, we need the storage and room. Our schedules are opposite as well, I like to get up early and wife in bed while I make coffee would get frustrating. With the forward dinette it would a problem. I also...

    Well, I do have an idea. I want a FWC flatbed fleet. I initially was going to get a Tacoma 2nd gen and discovered a 1st Gen Tundra would be better if I had my heart set on Toyotas. This will be a full time rig, you might think it's too small, but I'll qualify that my wife and I have been...
