Thank you insp1505...that's exactly what I was referring to. Where we elk hunt, the forest dept puts these big heaves for drainage in some of the roads we drive down...and my flatbad trailer with the atvs on will drag in the back...not an issue with the trailer, but the jacks on a camper might. My cooler now is pretty big, but that because I have a toy hauler with a rear garage which I can put anything...downsizing to a truck camper would require to go smaller cooler, etc...but I do use a popup camper for hunting and can throw the cooler, dog kennels, leveling boards all on the floor...a camper with slide would require some thought...heck, I could throw the kennels on the cab over bed if I had to. Just some decisions I need to make I guess. The Lance 975 will be about 400 lbs more than the 10-2..and the 9' 6 will be lighter than the 10-2 by a couple hundred pounds...but I can get the Lance for about 5K cheaper than the 9 6 and 8K cheaper than the 10 2......
