I've thought about about a cab and chassis
With a custom bed a lot. I own a heavy weight camper but also need the full benefits of a truck bed (I think). So right now I'm thinking Ram 3500 Longhorn 6.4 Hemi with 4.10 and options netting me sufficient payload. Currently I'm stuck in the VW diesel fiasco so my ability to sell and purchase is on hold. I'm on the fence but wanted to answer your question that yes I ponder it. I also built them and installed for Pete, Kenworth, Mack and FL, out of high school for a OEM builder so it would be easy for me to spec out or help build.
Right now, I'm looking to see payloads for 2017 3500 ' s when they come to market. If favorable, I'll probably go pick-up. We'll see....
