I have a 2003 Dodge Ram 2500 short bed Hemi and auto trans. My camper is a 2005 Northstar TC800, Pop Up, 1,400 pounds dry. The truck drives like the camper isn't there. A real breeze, including even some off roading to remote places in Colorado and Utah. Carry's some 36 gallons of fresh water. We also have pulled our ATV trailer, or flat towed our jeep, or on a car hauler across country. No concerns. A great unit and fit and a great company at Northstar to deal with, that is family run, personable and easily available for telephone and emails questions. But I have never had a bit of trouble, using it nearly year round, and lots of camping. Driving just the camper, I can still get 10 to 12 mpg.
We are switching over to a Class C, so plan to put the Northstar and maybe the truck up for sale soon. Hate to see it go, buy Mom just wants something bigger, but I love the ability to get off the pavement.
