Everything above the trucks rails. Wouldn't this have a very high COG?

I've had 2000# standard campers that felt "tippy".

I still don't understand how these TCs can get to $60K....No motor, wheels tires, transmission, chassis, etc......And it costs as much as three economy cars......

I'd be totally freaked out unloading this monster.

But it is nice inside! I think I'd rather have a Flatbed Camper if it was me.

Dramatic subject line even if it is a stretch. 🙂 In any case, TCM didn't do a real review, but I hope they got paid well for the ad. It wasn't even MSRP of 60K and not 6000 either according to the ad.

Some of us can't understand why someone would tow a trailer either when they could have a TC ... go figure ... joking. Seriously though, I'm not into the really long TCs. I know I can usually back into a normal CC Long Bed space. I don't think I could do that with 2 1/2 more feet. My CC long bed with TC is long enough!

I like that they designed a canopy that works on the slide side. My canopy was installed on the opposite side so that it could shade the sewer and water hook ups.

Not sure I like where the TV is located. Neck strain....
Don't gain any weight....the passage to the bathroom seems real narrow.

****. Does any pickup have 6k+ in payload? That is 3 tons!

Love the layout and really well thought out too. I can see myself going hunting and fishing with that.

They said it was on that truck only for photo purposes. Obviously this thing needs dual wheels .....at least!

6,000 lbs on a SRW truck? Overloaded a little maybe?
