Why not just use the truck camper you have now, and add on a hitch to tow an enclosed cargo trailer for whatever else you need?
Hmmm.. I just reread your post. So you want your truck to have an empty bed so you can use that to move stuff when you are scenes? Is that right?
We already have a toy hauler which has had the back end converted into a place to cook and prepare meals. Most of our meals are the sandwich type. We have put a freezer,four convection ovens,warming tower, three tables and then overhead storage. When we get to a location we usually make arrangements with someone like Sysco or we go to the nearest Sam and buy our supplies. We can turn out up to 2000 meals per day if we can get some local volunteers help us put things together.
When I go with my truck and truck camper I usually can not use the truck. I also do not like to take camper off because I have to go empty tanks and we might move to another location. Having a fifth wheel hitch in back is no problem because when we go out to the areas to hand out meals I usually can carry in back and in bed.
The other reason for wanting either a TT or FW is we are staying longer sometimes. Plus with the five locations we did lately it would have been nicer for my bride. And being 74 I do not have that much longer to do this.Maybe 10 or 12 years.
Thanks
