    RV LIFE Multisite Forum, Wander The West Happy with your 1/2 ton and customized shell camper?

    Ted, Hard to argue your reasoning. Dave In response to the 2000 tundra with the 03 hawk. How many miles did you get out of the truck? Ever have any major issues? My wife and I just bought the same truck with 50k miles on it and just purchased an 05 hawk for it. Just curious what we can...

    RV LIFE Multisite Forum, Wander The West Happy with your 1/2 ton and customized shell camper?

    Gene is right that a 3/4 ton will handle a camper and brake better than a half ton, as it would with any load. But we ran our 2003 Hawk on a 2000 Tundra for seven years with no issues, including a couple of panic stops. And when we upgraded our truck, it was to another half ton - a 2011 Tundra...

    RV LIFE Multisite Forum, Wander The West Hawk vs Fleet

    I totally agree here. About mileage, my Dodge Cummins 3/4 ton gets better mileage with an ATC camper on it than my friend's 4 cyl Tacoma with only a small shell. We do a lot of trips together, he always needs more fuel when we stop at a station. The 6 cyl. Tacoma gets even worse. Plus with the...
