Newbie on your site; looking for a fairly light weight camper with a footprint that's 42" wide and up to 92" long. I'd like to use it with the tailgate down for the extra space. Long ago, I had a SixPack that was built for a Toy long bed truck and liked it well. Does anyone know if such a creature is still made? I can't afford a new custom build one. Thanks for any ideas.
As has been posted elsewhere on this forum, length of the truck bed is not as important as where the center of gravity falls in relation to the rear axle.
Having the tailgate down does not make a short bed truck into a long bed when it comes to carrying a camper. While it would allow you to physically carry a longer TC, if the center of gravity of the camper is substantially behind the rear axle handling would become odd at the least, or possibly dangerous.
