Large Truck Campers: how practical?
I just noticed this photo of a TC that is on a for sale site is very large being 18ft overall with 12ft 4 inches floor. How practical are large Truck Campers Off Road? It is actually a Custom build ...

This is actualy quite silly. The first pic is a dually with a large camper on it, and nothing looks that bad. as long as the center of gravity is in the proper place at or ahead of the rear axle this will be fine as long as you're not grosly overloaded.
The second picture is the same thing, but what's different? They put an enclosed car trailer behind it and added a **** ton of weight behind the real axel that is most likely at its limit to start with.
The first pic is all good, second pic, the owner deserved what he got.
Well in the first photo, the TC is fine for nice dirt roads. In the second he had it overloaded, on a dirt road with undulations pulling a trailer that was already stressing the chassis. A large jarring bump would be the straw that broke the Camels back.
