Good advice here from folks who have lived the Winter Dream.
A couple more things I see as valuable.
1. Any truck camper that has the word ARCTIC or NORTHERN in its name says something to me. This means find a mfgr. that is farthest from the equator and in the cold clime. I just don't trust a cold weather specific camper made where there are palm trees growing on the premisis. 8<) Unfortunately that's exactly what I have.
Digging out of a 40 inch snowfall. I'd already used the roof rake to remove snow from the top of the TC and used the snowblower to clear the sides. Getting the TC ready for a winter trip to the desert:
2. Buy the largest, most 4-seasoned camper that will fit on your truck. Oh, no; that means you need a BIG truck because the darned thing is so heavy.
