I bought the truck as a 10+ year investment and made sure to get the camper and 5th-wheel prep package so that the truck could handle any change I make in what type of RV I want in the future. I'm more likely to go truck camper on my next RV, but I wanted the 5th wheel prep on there just in case. Plus I'm sure these options won't hurt resale...
Just a FYI on Truck Campers/slide-ins. I've got the '11 version of what looks like the same configuration you have. My payload sticker shows at 3263 lbs. I've been researching on Truck Campers and even with the Camper Package, seems I will still be very limited to what slide-in camper I should be comfortable with. In my research, seems I'm looking at 2000 - 2200 pounds for the truck camper which is almost always a camper without a slide. I will also be looking to tow my lightweight ATV trailer with the camper.
All of those really nice Arctic Fox slide-in campers are on the range of 3200 - 4500 pounds dry. Those are more in the range of DRW or 450.
Looks like a very nice truck you got there and I really like the color. My truck pulls my 8500-9000 lbs TT, with my 700 lbs ATV in the truck bed, through the high altitude with no problem. This 6.7L motor is very strong.
