Have to admit I've given something like some serious thought. Lots easier than towing the Jeep. It has worked out quite well for us but age and hip replacements are making us a little nervous about the bike these days so I guess we will have to go the tow route.

I use a Black and Decker Inverter I picked up at Lowes that I keep hooked to the house battery in the camper. I run a 90 Watt laptop on it regularly but mostly I use it to charge the laptop. If powering the laptop and network card you will probalbly have to keep the truck running to keep the...

Hi Mike. On my CO I have removeable cut outs under the dinette seating cushions that allow firly good access to that area. One area I use for house batteries and the other for general storage. I have to block up my Alaskan about 3 inches in order for the CO to clear the cab which also gives me...

I am planning a trip to the Lake Powell area in early fall. Not familiar with the area. I will be hauling a 20' cuddy cabin boat behind by F250 4x4 with Alaskan C/O. I am particularly interested in remote or semi-remote areas where I could launch the boat and set up the camper in the same area...

My CO sits in a F250 Super Duty Crew Cab and I also carry a 300# bike and rack. The only suspension mods I made were to add air bags which I run at about 80PSI. Ten ply rated tires of course. No problems on or off road. Pic in 'Show your rig.

My 8' CO has to be blocked up for the CO to clear the cab so I have 3x3's bolted to the camper floor from side to side. After setting the camper in the bed I drop a 4' 2x4 between the wheel wells and the sides and then moderately tighten the chain and turnbuckles I use on all four corners. This...
