I am impressed with what you have picked up. I think you will do well, with a minimum of surprises.
Thanks. I hope so!
I tell you, the learning curve here is huge. For someone (myself) who has no RV experience, no truck experience, no truck camper experience. There are so many topics. Especially including the extra challenges for a truck camper with the do it yourself putting together the truck and camper.
For the past 6 - 8 months I have been reading forums (rv.net, facebook, manufacturer specific forums), watching YouTube videos (Chris Travels and many others), read one book (RV Vacations For Dummies, which is actually a very good introduction book). And Truck Camper Magazine is a tremendous resource.
I have lists of topics and accessories. When I finish I could probably turn my notes into a book.

Side winds and semis will still push you around, but not as much. You may find that a sway bar will really help, and not all trucks have them from the factory. If you have to buy one, get the largest diameter bar you can.
Sway bar. Yet another accessory that I wasn't aware of. I will have to pay attention whether the truck includes it. Thank you for alerting me about this.
I have heard of sway bars before but thought they were more for trailers. Didn't realize it was also something for a truck camper.
