2013 Eagle Cap 850s

Hi All,

Looking at a 2013 EC850 short bed. Looking for input on pros/cons, likes/dislikes etc. on the 2012-2013 line. Would also like to know your real world weights for on the road.

Thanks, Jeff Drennan

  • We just bought a 2013 850SB, last week. So far slept in it 3 nights, impressed with the quality of bulld however it is really heavy, it has a total of 48" of overhang with the comfort step, I found on my model the c/g is about 12" behind the rear wheels on my 2006 ram 3500 srw s/b. driving it in high winds is a rodeo.

    Otherwise is a really nice camper. I came from a lance 825 and my truck has stable loads and timbrens as well as bilstein 5160 shocks. Night and day diff between the lance 825 and the EC 850 I figure the ec is 1500 lbs loaded heavier than the lance and it was 2400 lbs ready for camping.
  • Looking at the same unit for my F350 SB. We saw one in NH, Truck Camper Warehouse, and we're quite impressed.
