How tall is your truck and camper really?
I thought it would be fun to post a couple of comparison photos. No, my truck isn't lifted, but as you can see, it's really tall compared to the other trucks in the photos. No, I'm not saying taller...

In 2002 with new-to-me Lance Camper, wet: 10 feet, 0 inches. No AC, stock tires, no lift, left side roof baggage rail already torn off: Mt. Whitney directly over the box.
In 2015 same Lance 165-s, wet: 10 feet, 4.5 inches with 3 inch lift, slightly larger diameter tires, solar panels, no AC, left side roof baggage rail still missing. Bottom edge of tailgate opening now 42" from terra firma. I purposely left the left side with less height for wiggling around overhanging branches. Solar is center and right side, by design.
mine on left. Right: Bigfoot on a 2WD Chevy 3500. Near Spirit Lake, Mt. St. Helens, 2012: We both took two parking places, although, the other guy took 4 feet longer to do it.
