There are two articles about this much talked about topic on TCA. The first is literally almost word for word of all of the comments on this forum. I think someone posted this already...https://www.truckcamperadventure.com/overloaded-ram-3500-dually-results-in-truck-camper-disaster/The second article explains more of what actually happened. Sorry if someone already posted this. But all in all a good ending to a disaster.https://www.truckcamperadventure.com/insurance-covers-repair-to-pavels-overloaded-and-broken-ram-3500-frame/

Michael sold his truck on February 4, the day after he returned from Baja with his Eagle Cap camper. A happy ending for what had been a nightmare for the California couple. His next truck will be a Ram 5500 chassis, a truck with more than enough payload for his Eagle Cap 1165.

Well no sht Sherlock…The attempt at actual or feigning ignorance by the owner is disgusting lack of due diligence, something seemingly common in the RV owners world unfortunately. And it does not need a newspaper article to announce that “insurance covered it”. This is still a pathetic public display of idk what to call it. On the upside, found the guy to box your frame no problemo senior for adamis!

On another note, $17k seems far too reasonable of a cost to completely disassemble and reassemble a truck. Especially a new one. Heck just a hood fender and grille and an extra 2 panels re spray cost half that much on my truck at the body shop a few months ago. ..

He sold the truck right after getting the camper back home.

A happy ending? | Good Sam Community
