I'm just a little shocked that an Outfitter Pop-up weighs that much! We've only ever run stock suspension with pop-ups. Even off road, there was barely any change in handling...
I bet there is a large difference in pop-up weights depending on the brand and brand model. Just thinking about a few that come to mind: Four Wheel Camper, Palomino,Phoenix,Northstar,Hallmark/Outfitter. The size differences, amenity differences. Water tank sizes: FWC=20 gallons, Outfitter=44 gallons. Shoot, just the difference between what Terry's 7.5 cu ft refrigerator/freezer will hold verses a Four Wheel Camper's 1.9 cu ft frig...I can easily see at least 1,500 lb difference.
Don't get me wrong, I am not bad mouthing Four Wheel Campers. They were the most popular truck camper at the Expo this year and have a loyal following.
