I am looking at a WC or maybe the lightest AF.I have some general questions about them.Can you make the WC's comfortable in temps as low as freezing and as high as mid 90's?How big is the generator bay? Will two Honda 2000W's fit? or a Yamaha 2400W? Are any of you using the 2500W Onan? is it noisy? How long does propane last running it?Is the Coleman 9k unit large enough for 90-95 degree weather?How hot does the bunk area above the cab get? Or is it ducted?Where do you store fuel for the generator?Where do you store your tools?Where do you store your lawn chairs, ice chests and other gear?Sorry for all of the questions.

I have AF 990 no problem staying warm at many degrees below zero generator bay probably will not hold 2 Hondas AC plenty big to keep whole camper cool and will run on 1 Honda 2000. I strap a box on 1 of those things that go in receiver hitch fuel in gen compartment or in box strapped on back. Honda generator will fit in gen compartment or put in shower or back seat

I have an AF 865, no slide out with an Onan 2500 onboard. I have used the generator for an hour or two now and again, it is pretty decent and uses less propane than estimated.I have camped into the mid-20's at night and 100 degree days and generally don't use the a/c unless hooked to shore power. Heat is fine, it is not ducted into the bathroom on mine and that makes for a chilly morning pitstop on a cold morning. The a/c is cold enough to freeze you out of the camper.The bed area is fine and stays warm, aim a vent up and back and you are in business. Ice chest goes on the floor inside the door, there is a 6 foot slide out tray for tools and small storage under the bathroom sink (outside access) and inside the valve area. We haul extra stuff up top or in the back seat of our dual cab. I store two or three folding chairs in the bathroom and maybe a small folding Coleman table. I have a bike rack on the ladder and spare tire is up front on a front hitch mount. All AF campers are heavy in my opinion, the Truck Camper magazine estimated wet weights are pretty accurate. As far as I can tell everyone is heavier than they claim. A properly set-up single rear wheel truck does fine in spite of what some of the weight Nazis on this forum tell you. A Wolf Creek is lighter and has a few items that are not as fancy as an AF, I looked at both. I actually hunted thru every brand locally available to me. AF had the tallest over bed ceiling and high quality for the most part.

I think Princess Craft in Round Rock carries WC and AF. Might check their inventory and go look.Bigfoot dealer as well.http://www.princesscraft.com/

Thanks for the responses. I think the AF's have R10 in the walls vs R5 for the WC so that might make a difference. Also the newer AF have the arched ceiling with quite a bit more of insulation in the ceiling. I am not against an AF just that they are going to be at least 1000-1500 lbs heavier which might be pushing it for a F350 SRW fully loaded King Ranch.

Do you have a pic of how you mounted this?

We didn't go for the roll over in part because we like looking out the windows.

I think the with the Wolf Creek dinettes being U shaped, they are going to be longer than the AF dinettes, or at least in the 811 AF

Didn't know that they had a Facebook Group. Thanks

Opinions on rollover sofa vs dinette for both eating and sleeping? Is sofa better for sleeping but dinette better for eating?

We were considering the rollover sofa but there is no storage under the sofa. We store several items in the drawer under the one seat of the dinette and water and assorted beverages in the compartment under the other side of the dinette.
On the fuel storage for my generator I mounted a RotoPax L bracket and 2 - 2 gallon RotoPax fuel containers on my Fox Landing.
I store my small tools under the rear seat of my double cab in a tool bag.
Lawn chairs and hiking and paddling gear go on the back seat of the double cab.

Thanks, I will look into the Rotopax mounts

I'll be sleeping on the dinette this week end. My sister and I are taking a trip together -- her first TC experience and my first on the dinette. At 6'4" and 250 lbs. I should be able to give you an honest evaluation. Thank goodness I only have to spend two nights on it! I'll have my sleeping bag and Camprest pad as backup. I don't mind sleeping outside under the stars.
