Desert Fox Jr,
I can not tell you about the 811....but my 10-2 is excellent! And I would definitely recommend it, and I would suggest taking a look at the Northern Lite campers. Last few years ago when wife and I were looking for a truck camper we had narrowed down them down to Bigfoot 25C10.6, Arctic Fox 990 and Northern Lite 10-2ex. We liked them all, but the Northern Lite 10-2 just felt right for us. It is about 6" wider than the Bigfoot- and 6" is a Big deal in a truck camper. The Artic Fox was nice, but I really did not want a slide. Slides can have a maintence and seal issues that i did not want to deal with plus wanted access to camper for quick stops. The Artic Fox was also pretty heavy. Then we looked at the NL 811, it was very nice but a little small for the two of us. We also looked at the 9-6 whhich is very, very similar to the 10-2. With the 10-2 we accuired additional storage space/ cabinets towards rear of camper. I really liked the two piece fiberglass shell.
All in all the NL's felt roomier than the other non slide campers we looked at, and we looked at a lot of brands. The NL's felt solid, no saggy floors, no doors or trim falling off. Yes, we had a bathroom door fall off when we opened the door and many campers wit trim falling.
We really, really like our NL. It was a bit pricier than some of the others, but its like the old saying.. "the quality remains long after the price is forgotten". Take a look at the NL 811 and see if it fits your needs.
