Center of Gravity Truck Camper
I’m considering an Arctic Fox 1140 which has a COG marked as 55.25” from the front wall of the camper. That puts the COG about 2” behind my rear axle. I am seeing Lance’s and Host’s that have COG’s...

Trust that COG is COG, the same issue applies to a chassis cab flat bed, even when ‘well under’ it’s 19,500# GVWR. Even though cab to axle distance (i.e. a 60” CA) is about 4” longer with a class 4 or 5 CC, this light FA effect is exacerbated by a flat bed’s longer (say 9’-4” vs 8’) than the standard pick-up’s 8’ bed…In either case, adding a leaf (other than to address cargo weight or sag) can help..
