3600-3800lbs loaded up. What's your truck rated to carry?
Not even close!!!!
The smallest EC has a dry weight of 3380. With propane and a full water tank the weight will be just shy of 3800#. That does not include options such as an A/C, awnings, generator, second battery or solar. Also add 1000# for cooking gear, bedding, towels, tools, air compressor, cleaning supplies, leveling blocks, lawn chairs, BBQ grill, food/drinks, clothing......
The smallest EC is likely to be in the 5000# range loaded for camping. When calculating gross weight don't forget to add the weight of passengers, stuff you might carry in the truck, tiedowns, fastguns, bed mat.....
You need a dually!!
