I'll follow up that I feel your pain and add that a 1/2 ton truck really doesn't solve the problem. Since I would rather downsize to a 4x4 SUV (4 Runner, Xtera, etc) than drive an F-250 every day, I've decided I'll stick our pop-up for regular camping and rent a Class C for summer vacation. When I get closer to retirement, I'll buy a Class C or A.
Yeah, I'm not interested in driving a pickup truck.
The RV industry can continue to ignore the trend that is happening in vehicle size if they want. I can't tell you how many people are buying used popup campers now because 1. TT are too heavy for most people's vehicles and it is awesome to be told that in addition to the 30k you were willing to drop on a camper, you now have to drop another 15-20 for a different tow vehicle, and 2. New popups cost the same as a travel trailer.
