I think the newer campers have a bit wider basement than the older campers.
Or it maybe the truck tailgate opening is narrower?
The space between the tailgate opening and the camper basement is about 3/4" max (on my current rig). That's the narrowest point at the top of the tailgate opening.
Between the wheel wells is wider.
My old Eagle Cap and 2005 dually was pretty easy to get on and off.
But my now current Lance and 2015 dually requires a lot more attention and level ground to properly align and load.
As is often the case, "it depends" on the equipment.
