Hi we have a 2007 cab over 8.5 alaskan.IMO they are a very good choice having the hard sides and power hdy.roof lift. If I might suggest the 10 ft. model, I think the extra space would be worth the extra cost.Also ours has the extended cab over which adds a lot of extra space for sleeping and storage,if you have an extended cab truck.We found storage space a bit limited inside so we upgraded to a flat bed with tool boxes under the wings and bed which solved the problem.IMO an upgrade to a compressor frige would be a worth while addition if they are avaible now.As fsr as the awning goes I would maybe shop around and add it my self later,you might find a wider choice of colors styles ect. and maybe save a few bucks too boot.On the bike rack issue, our camper has a factory canoe rack on the roof, you might come up with a plan to adapt it for bikes.Accessing the roof for this is not a problem with top down if one is standing on the truck tail gate or in our case on our floor leavel rear deck.If you have questions just ask.Good luck with your new camper.
