Probably just another one who thinks the camper can tip over forwards when he's sleeping in the cabover bunk.

That looks awesome !!

Setting a truck camper on a flatbed isn't uncommon and it works great.
You get a porch and lots of room to carry stuff. Judging by the surfboard, it's probably a young guy who hasn't got the budget for a zillion dollar truck and RV. He's out there getting it done and probably having more fun than most of us.

Amen!

It is just amazing to me a person can sink over 100K into a new truck and truck camper.Getting it done and having fun is what it is all about.

There's nothing wrong with that rig. Back in the day, everyone used full-size cars to tow large trailers.
That's a Crown Vic, full size full frame, with as strong a powertrain and better brakes than the big Olds Vista Cruiser wagons and Chevy Impalas everyone towed with way back when.

Personally I like the attention to detail in that he found corrugated aluminum to match the camper side and put skirts on it down to the trailer -- even painted them to match :)

Don't fall for truck sellers pitching. Towing 5000 lb with full size sedan is perfectly safe and legal.
