In 1976 I bought a new Beaver 9 1/2 and kept and used it for 24 years. Never had a leak (I did all the necessary maintenance) and it was still in usable shape when I sold it. Carried it on a 1974 3/4T camper special with stake bed tie downs (never had a problem with them). It had two extra rear leafs and carried the camper well. I had over 60,000 miles on it. I towed an 18' ski boat and got a constant 9 MPG with/without the boat and or camper. I had an 'extendable' rear bumper to use with the camper. It had two 2 1/2" square mounts that allowed it to be extended. I never weighed it because the 'Weight Police' were not invented yet. I moved to a Lance 9' then a TT, then a lance 821, now a 30' Lazy Daze class C (I cant climb to the overhead bed anymore).
