Is there a source of basic info on TCs? I am planning to get one, have no idea on basic things like a) how does it attach to the truck; b) can I drive out from under it at my campsite and leave it there while I go sight seeing? Etc. I am experienced with travel trailers but not TCs. I am not strong enough to do some things with my travel trailer and am trying to avoid some problems by going to a TC. Do I also need to be a gorilla in order to mess with a TC? I already bought the truck so will be really disappointed if a TC does not fit my needs.
TY!
Need to do some reading.
Only a couple good mfg tie down systems. Tork lift is what most use.
Yes you can remove the TC when you get to where you're going, but will have to lower it down and some require or reccomend addl support to live in it off the truck.
If you're looking to dump the camper at the campsite, a trailer is far more conducive to this.
Not sure what you could get into on a TT that would require more physical strength than on a TC other than maybe hooking up WD bars?
Access in and out of a TC is also more involved on some than most TTs which are low to the ground.
