This is purely subjective but eventually I want to upgrade from an F250 with a pop up camper to a hard sided camper. Something similar to an Arctic Fox 1150.
For you guy's with campers that size and duallies, how much body sway do you feel when driving down the road?
Do any of you haul that size camper with a gas engine?
Do any of you tow?
F350 CC DRW 6.2 with an AF 1150.
Very stable. Only suspension modification needed was stable loads to make it level. And yes I chose a gas engine. The truth is the gas engines are better for hauling, diesels are better for towing. With the gas engine I am 300 pounds under the GVWR, with a diesel I would be 600 pounds over. Given that my gas engine is rated to tow over 15,000 pounds it easily has enough power to handle a 5,000 pound camper.
