2003 GMC 2500HD - Adventurer 910FBS???
Hi Guys, I've got 2003 GMC 2500HD, 8.1L, SRW, 2-wheel drive, Extended cab long bed truck. I've currently got a 1990 Viking SP095 hardside camper for it that I purchased brand new. The dry weight on the Viking is 1991lbs and the truck rides and handles perfect. The old girl has been used hard for a lot of years and I'm thinking about buying a new camper. I found a new 2012 Adventurer 910FBS at a local dealer that I really like. The dry weight on the Adventurer is 3046lbs. Will my truck handle the new camper?
GVWR is 9200lbs
GAWR rear is 6084lbs
GAWR front is 4500lbs
GCWR is 22,000lbs
I believe the curb weight on the truck is 5400lbs or so. I think that gives me 3800lbs or so before I reach GVWR. I don't have an issue adding air bags or extra springs if needed.
Also, any thoughts on the quality and construction of the Adventurer campers in general? Where do they fall in comparison to Lance, Host, Artic Fox and other brands????
Thanks for your input...
