Nautique200: Thanks; we saw many Arctic Foxes during our trip and enjoyed sharing stories with their owners. We're in the process of tweaking our truck and TC now, figuring out where to stash things, getting the right tire gauge and chuck for the duallies and buying a bottle jack with more capacity. I just installed a Plug-and-Play Camera Source back-up camera and mounted it underneath the Arctic Fox steps, and am thinking of adding driving lights and a TPMS. This could get almost as expensive as getting into photography!

We must have just missed each other. We started in Anacortes and drove then ended up in Newport. Now we are at Detroit Lake getting ready to head to Rock Creek on Mount Hood. Congrats on the setup. We love ours.

I do not know what is more beautiful, the view, campsite or camper? It is a tie! Nice job all around.

Jimster, that is a great combo you have. Did you order that 811? My Northwood dealer never gets long bed 811s. I assume that a person would have to order one.


They build the 811 long beds as a normal production run, but I think they build only about 1/5th of the 811s in long bed.

OP: Nice looking truck and camper. Dually is the only way to go on the AF campers.

Fan covers are really easy do it yourself installs.... it's so easy, they are not worth paying a shop the labor time to do it. They will probably charge an hour labor for 2 vent covers.

K Mac and Geo Boy: Thanks again -- The rig goes into the shop next week for fan covers and air bags, and I'll get the missing lens replaced then.

K Mac: The "missing marker lens (second, from drivers' side)" on our F350 DRW is an OEM GPS Radio Roof Antenna. The dealer would have a good laugh if I asked for another roof clearance light.

Jimster, KMac is talking about the missing lens on the front of the camper.
