Did that trip in 2012. Our rig is almost the same has yours, we have a 2010 Eagle Cap 1160 and 2008 Ford F350 6.4 L Diesel. We were gone for five months. We were in Dawson Creek on July 2, 2012 and got to Fairbanks on July 8 2010. Our expeience was similar to previous posters. We stayed at provincial parks as much as possible. However, we did have to stop at RV parks every 3rd or 4th day to make sure our batteries were fully charged. I brought a battery charger with, for this purpose (Wiring is too small from truck to camper). We made sure that we filled up whenever we saw a gas station that carried diesel. The lowest we got was 15 miles of diesel left in the tank, as we pulled into the gas station in Kluane National Park (I was very nervous to say the least).
There are places to stop for information all along the highway, do it they have brochures on gas stations, RV dumps, RV parks, Provincial Parks and anything else you might want to know.
That last 100 miles of the Alaska Highway in Canada was the worst. This section has numerous frost heaves. The majority of the heaves are marked my cones/markers, which is great. But some heaves were barely a little bump and some were real rattlers. the first time we hit one of these I thought for sure we were in trouble. Luckily nothing happened. So we slowed down to the 25 MPH. However, we did not experience any mechanical breakdowns whew!!!.
Places we liked :
Laird Hot Springs a must stop we spent a couple of days here. However the mosquitos were terrible here. Comparatively speaking there were no mosquitos the rest of the trip.
Muncho Lake was a favorite.
Teslin campground saw my first Bald Eagle as it flew about 10 " over me.
Kluane National Park was also spectacular
