Hi all, I have been obsessing over truck campers for a couple of months right now as I try to figure out what is going to work for me. I had almost resigned myself to the pop-up TC, when I saw this...
Braking force is result of friction and applied weight, so assuming your vehicle has adequate brakes, the braking distance should not change with weight on dry pavement. When my camper moved 1/2" to the rear, I did couple of low speed brakes punches. Truck dove, but camper did not move. I am pretty confident my truck will stop well in straight lane, but again, braking on turn might be quite different story.
