They will all ride like that on the test drive as you're driving around unloaded with 80psi in the tires. I set mine at 45psi front and 40psi rear on my 2014 Ram 3500 for daily driving and notice a huge difference.

Depreciation on popup campers is very location specific. You can't give one away here in the gulf coast. I tried selling for a while and ended up losing my butt trading it on my Lance.

If you're looking for under GVWR, you'll have to either go with a very minimalist camper (next to zero options) on a very basic half ton (no crew cabs need apply) or go to a much bigger truck than a half ton. If, on the other hand, you're willing to accept the fact that thousands of trucks, up...

Why? Hard side camper up to 9' long are rated for short beds. I had an 8' ATC on my 5'8" bed ford Supercrew and now have an 8'11" lance on my 6'4" bed Ram 3500. Both stock height suspensions. If you're thinking rough roads, the ford with the ATC made it up and over Stoney and Cinnamon Passes in...

In addition to the air bags install a rear Helwig sway bar. It makes a huge difference. That's how I had mine setup when I had an 8' ATC Cougar in my 2009 Ford Screw with the 5'8" bed. I left the tailgate down but built a platform out of 2x4s to bridge the bed and gate. I also had to remove the...

The propane and batteries in the living compartment is a terrible idea and the propane is definitely against DOT regs. They both need to be vented to outside and totally sealed from the inside. Use and charging of the batteries will vent gases and as said above, propane bottles vent when...

This camper has been traded to Princess Craft in Austin, TX for an extremely lightly used Lance 855 to put on the new Ram 3500 SRW. Just got back from the first two night trip a few hours ago and head out for a 9 day trip to the four corners next week. I'll miss the low clearance of the popup...

This is how I close mine every time. Makes for much less tucking afterwords.

Another price drop to $10,000. Spring is coming. I'd much rather sell this to someone here or on Expo rather than trading it.

Another price drop. $11,000

Offers? This beauty needs to go so I have space for its much less expo-worthy replacement. Why buy a 6.5ft camper when this will work fine in your short bed truck and give you a ton more space?

Just buy this book. It grades pretty much every truck passable road and trail in CO with great descriptions. http://www.amazon.com/Backcountry-Adventures-Colorado-Peter-Massey/dp/1930193068

That surf fishing video is out of control!! But it's a prime example of how the right attitude can turn almost anything into a fun memory and a great time.

I'm using airbags and a Helwig sway bar. I inflate the airbags to about 30 pounds which is low. Also upgraded to E range tires, Although I did make a 1000 mile each way trip to Miami with the stock Pmetric tires. The only reason I'm selling it is to get a larger hard side. We make trips to the...

Price drop to $11,500.

I agree. You couldn't pay me to attempt a tire change with a hi lift holding up a vehicle.

Up for sale is my 2011 ATC Cougar. It was a great first camper for us but momma wants something with a few more niceties and room now that baby number 2 is in the cards. This camper is very lightly used and in great condition. It includes a treated platform to raise it 1.5” if your newer truck...

I use an engel 45 in the camper for food and a Yeti 50 in the back seat of the truck for drinks. Once the yeti is chilled, I can buy block ice and not drain the melt and get about half a week opening it multiple times a day. I figure that if my ice melts totally, I can throw a few beers in the...

I've got an Engel. No 3-way stove here. We are thinking about running to big bend for thanksgiving. I'll give it a shot them and see if I can replicate the problem.

That was the same with me. It worked fine for 1.5 weeks of a 2.5 week trip. Then started acting up. That was this summer. I knew that i had no way to trace the problem down in south Louisiana in the summer so I just forgot about it. Now that we might do something for thanksgiving, I need it fixed.

The stove works fine and the furnace only doesn't work intermittently. I hate intermittent problems. Especially ones that only manifest themselves in conditions that I can't replicate in South Louisiana. Haha. I'm going to attempt to pull the propane valve and see if maybe it's sticking or...

It's not low voltage. I've had it not work in the morning then work 3 hours later after it heated up. I've also had it not work one cold evening after driving all day charging. Also,I can hear the igniter clicking.

When I had the vent covers off I read that you are supposed to run the fan for five minutes without the propane on prior to opening the propane valve. I wasn't doing that. Could that be the issue. For more clues, even running the stove for a couple of minutes to purge the propane lines wouldn't...

On my last trip to the mountains I had an issue with the furnace. If I turned it on before it got cold at night it would light fine. If we just slept in the bags all night and tried to light it in the morning to knock the chill out, it would never light. The fan would run and you could hear the...

Since you took the time to figure out the wiring, would you mind posting what is what and the part number for the harness?
