Truck Camper and TT Combo
Not sure where to ask this, so I'm starting here. Thanks in advanced.
We have a 2014 RAM 3500 Cummins SRW with about 4,300lb payload. Our current travel trailer is 4,300 empty, 6,000lb GVWR.
We'd like to get a single-slide camper and tow our TT with the camper in the bed.
The camper we're looking is a Palomino HS-1914 Backpack. It weights 3493 empty. "Wet" weight is about 4,700, I think.
While towing with the camper in the bed, we'd leave the camper as empty as possible and put most of our stuff in the TT.
Is this a crazy idea? I know we'd need to get extension bars of some sort to tow the trailer. Weight-wise, we'd be cutting it pretty close I think.
Thoughts? Thanks.
