Thought I would update this thread because I'm sure everyone was dying to know what I decided to go with. I took everyone's advice, ignored it, and went diesel (duramax LLY). I have not been disappointed with the purchase so far, gas mileage is where I'd like it and upping to the 3/4 ton has...

I'd say that would go for 20-25k easily, looks super clean. A 2005 Hawk with similar addons was recently listed and (likely) sold for 15k. If it were me, to prove the point, I'd make a mock add on CL for what you think it's worth and list your insurance guy's number in the contact info. I bet...

The range advantage is definitely the most intriguing part of a diesel to me

Separate, 2 valve 40-50 ish. E rated

@Vic: Airbags are plumbed separately, took a while to get them balanced right with a bike pump lol Ha, I'm out of the city using four-wheel drive often, but new to doing it with a camper and overweight truck (or maybe i'm just not used to it), but it doesn't feel totally safe to me. I'm in the...

I've recently landed a loaded Hawk and currently have it sitting on a 2002 Sierra 1500 w/airbags. During our first trip, my fiance and I, plus our gear, NO water in the Hawk, we're at 400 lbs over our GVWR, according to the scale at the dump. We knew we were pushing it so we opted for not...

Damn dude, That's inspiring!

Those are both good deals. Too bad they're a little out of my striking distance.

Actually probs not, 6 hours is an eternity for those damn things on CL Update: 6 hours late on the add = 5th person in line

Hopefully mine soon!

Thanks everyone for the feedback, Dphillips post is giving me a little bit of hope! I've been trying to get up in this cult but with camper availability and now my truck most likely needing mods, it's been a battle. I have a 2002 GMC Sierra 1500 z71 4x4, haven't crunched an official number but...

Seems the general rec here is to go with a 3/4 ton or bigger, but to those who stuck with 1/2 ton... What has your experience been like? Do you feel like you have enough truck for the Hawk? Is your Hawk fully loaded or just a shell? Just hoping to gather some feedback, good or bad. -Thomas

I've seen Stan's name all over this site, i'll definitely be reaching out!

Good to know. You think a couple sheets of plywood would do the trick to at least get the camper back home before i come up with a better solution? Also, he has brackets to extend the camper jacks so i should be okay there.

This is super helpful, really appreciate the detailed response. My bed is ~19.5" depth and 79.5" outside width, so might not be the best match. I'm going to speak with him over the phone here shortly so I'll definitely be asking about this. Maybe he has some systems in place because he...

Found a potential used Eagle ~8 hours away from me and was hoping someone here can confirm weather it will fit my 2002 GMC Sierra 1500. Having a hard time finding dimensions/drawings online. Thanks! Edit: I have the 6.5' standard bed
