More slides, more room, more structure, more weight, more maintenance, more leaks and delam, more truck to haul it all,(450 at least), and your going where with it? Just down the paved highway most likely. How often are you going to take that Beast off the truck while out there to use just the truck? Most likely when you get back home... I get it and nice to have that option but if it is room you need...buy a class C or bigger then. I think the idea of bigger is better is not always the niche. Large and heavy is loosing the appeal to get a truck camper into places you can't get a conventional RV into. Ok, you can use your class C or bigger as a daily driver, but think of what these things will cost! Really by the time it is all said and done with a new truck and a TC of this size, go out and find something a few years old that will fit the truck you got and save your money for other things. Most all of us use our trucks as our daily drivers but who wants to stick to the pavement?? Not me anyway... that's not what I had a TC for. This just my opinion but this is certainly geared for the non off road crowd who do not use 4 wheel drive from time to time....OK my figures are out of breath now, it's your turn.
Explain to me how it is harder unload or load a large camper? You either drive under it load it or drive out from under to unload it. In either case, you only have to push one button on the remote, doesn't matter what size the camper is. I unload/load my camper at every campground.Oh, and I use 4WD all the time.
