Where is this 2500# camper you speak of???
Well BillTex perhaps you are not familiar with Hallmark pop up campers.
Here is one example.
http://www.hallmarkrv.com/campers/hallmark-ute/
With the options we will get, it will be about 2,500 lbs wet. At most 3,000 lbs wet but realistically 2,7500 lbs max.
These are real world weights I am quoting, based upon actual campers that have been weighed by owners, with similar options.
Now back to the thread.... thanks again to everyone for the info about how the weight of the camper will smooth out an F350. It wasn't horrible empty, but great to know it will be somewhat better when loaded with our camper.
:-)
Awesome. Post scale weights after you are locked/loaded. Pop up does not = lighter.
Have you owned any truck previously?
Any truck will be “jittery” unladen. HD even more so.
However, 3/4 ton vs 1 ton only difference that effects ride quality (sic) should be overloads.
Welcome to the world of TC’s.
Fun factor is high, learning curve is steep.
Be safe.
