Didn't think about the overall height. Maybe a 550 would be the way to go. The price of a 550 gets up there once you add a bed etc. The reason I was looking a little bigger is I tow a trailer 95% of the time with my current setup (2009 F-350 Dually Diesel, 24' Enclosed Trailer & Arctic Fox 990). I have been looking at upgrading both the Camper and trailer. Bigger trailer and larger Chalet camper. Just thinking out loud here getting ideas

Late to the party..
I license the work 550's at 34k..they're good to 33,500 I believe. Get a pass on the RV version sorta, but you get the idea.
Most of us have stinger extensions, which limits the trailers in the 12k range anyhow. Easily within range for these rigs.
Add a heavy camper and 'stuff' (God knows, we all have lots of stuff, stuffed) and...well, it's just heavy.
I like those rigs you're looking at, but to be honest, I get tired of driving 'trucks'; the 550 is slightly better. If I had my druthers, I'd find a truck that drive like a town car and throw the camper on that....
