Ford SD 99-04 Regular Cab Truck Camper Pictures

Guessing the regular cab trucks aren't as popular due to storage limitations, but interested to see pictures of folks rigs and what campers you decided on. Harder to find pictures of these trucks on google images as it seems most have supercabs or crew cabs. I've got an F250 4x4 SRW 7.3 with many upgrades but still limited by the stamped weight limits. I see folks hauling some crazy campers with these and have to guess that they are running overweight. I'm shopping campers right now, so any feedback regarding how you like your camper is definitely welcome!

  • My 2005 F250 extended cab short bed carried a 4000 lb Arctic Fox 811 while towing an 8000 lb 20' Interstate trailer.





    I now have a larger truck since we plan on going to a larger camper.

    I would disagree that just because I have more HP, I am somehow more dangerous. I've put a lot of money into 'go fast stuff' on mine to haul over the mountain passes around here, which I still can't even do the speed limit on. Likewise, I seldom ever do the posted speed limit, especially in the 70mph zones. I don't see why going up Snoqualmie Pass at 50 in a 65 makes more dangerous from back when I was doing 40 in a 65. If anything, just the opposite.

    If I want to go fast, I take out my Corvette, not my fully loaded truck, TC and trailer.
  • Of course we ran overweight, but we researched the axle capacity, changed out the tires and wheels, put Rancho shocks on, and added springs to some.

    One tough truck indeed. Adding power to the engine does not help the carrying capacity though, it only makes it more dangerous because you go faster.
