The truck was bought new by me in 2000. It has 136,000 miles on it. I bought it with the 7.4 litre. I have taken very good care of it. This is all part of a Master plan. First the camper. Then a new truck in about 3 or 4 years. I have 6 more years until retirement at age 55. I do alot of duck hunting as well as retriever hunt testing in the off season. This will help with those road trips away from home.

How does it ride? It looks like a long bed camper on a short bed truck, is that right? Does it feel like the front of the truck wants to come up a lot on bumps?


I've got an Adventurer 86FB that is very similar and it too is designed for long or short bed trucks. COG is right over the axle and truck handling is very good.

Nice looking combo by the way!

The camper is designed for short or long bed. I'm not sure if it shows in the picture. However the center of gravity arrows are just at the center of the axle. Rides great. We brought it home on a Friday. That Sunday we took it to the Fryeburg fair. Handled great.Very pleased. Was an upgrade from our 2008 Travel Lite 840 SBR.

We picked it up the end of Sept. It has taken this long to figure how to post a picture.
