Looking for BH for my newer 06 1500 TV

TV was a priority for my family also. I like the position of the TV in the Salem. I am also towing with a half ton pickup 2005 F-150. Originally we were looking for a unit with a slide out but needed bunks too. We realized the slide put us out of our weight range and found the Forest River 261BHXL without the slide but had the queen bed, bunks, sofa and dinette with clear view of the TV for nighttime viewing. After much research and evaluation I set the limit of 5000 pounds dry weight for my half ton pickup. This allowed for extra cargo weight and hill climbing. Will be taking it out next month for the first climb up to the mountains. I expect a slow and steady climb and descent without any issues. We have a weight distribution hitch and sway control. I hope this helps.

Oh yes I will research that unit and please post back how you do. Like I said I towed my current camper with the newer truck and it whipped it around like it wasnt even back there.

My current camper comes in at 4500 lbs or so..

And just an FYI why I need bunk house. Often its my 2 boys and wife and I in our current camper. When my one son dont come my daughter and the two grand kids meet us.

We sleep 7 in this...
