I recently bought an Eagle Cap 850 non slide out model for my 04 F250 SC SB 4x4. When TC was fully loaded for our 6 week trip around the country we weighed 10,500. My truck was a V10 model and weighed 6600 without TC. That puts the TC camper at 3900 loaded and ready to go. After the trip I evaluated how well the truck did with airbags and rear sway bar added before trip. My tires were rated for 3400 each and rear axle was at 6650. I sold the truck and bought a F350 4x4 CC LB DRW and have found hauling the TC a much better experience.
The EC850 has been a wonderful camper for us and met all our expectations as well as having loads of storage. We were in temperatures of 11*F and 12" of snow in Montana and comfortable all night. No frozen pipes due to heated basement storage. In Texas we found temps of 90's and still comfortable.
