With a late model diesel dually and suspension mods (appropriate for Lance or AF) the little difference in weight makes no difference. In my opinion, the only advantage of Lance is a side door model but I'm ot willing to give up the fluid capacity of an AF for the convenience of a side door
With the additional fluid comes more weight, AF weigh about 500 lbs more than the claimed weight, so with the additional fluid plus the 500lbs unclaimed weight equals, about a 5000lb camper, good luck having fun hauling 5000 lbs around
My 01 Cummins Ram dually with 19.5's and a six speed does great and that's also when my 24' enclosed trailer is hooked up. No complaints here on the weight even with twisty, curvy, frost heaved, pot-holed Alaskan roads.
805gregg, what kind of camper do you have, and what are you hauling it with??
My bad, just saw your set-up on your profile. Get a dually if you're worried about weight.
