Re: New Silverado 4500 w/ TC
Saw a Northern Lite on a new Chevy 4500 flatbed up in a Mackinaw City campground last month........it was very impressive! Didn’t have my phone with me to take a picture and nobody was around to talk to about. It was very tall. That’s all I can tell you about it but they do exist.

Not true...My Lance 811 with slideout is only 3017 lbs wet and is easily within the ratings of my 3500 SRW. No question a dually gives you more camper choices. . My 2006 AF811 weighed 4200 lbs. wet on a CAT scale........578Views0likes0CommentsRe: Dealer Listings - Find a TC Dealer in Your Area

burningman wrote: About the F150 - wrong!! Don’t even look at a 1-anything for hauling a camper. I’m a Northern Lite fan, because of the two-piece clamshell construction that isn’t anywhere near the leak and rot trouble of conventional built campers, and the freshwater on mine is 36 gallons, 42 if you include the freshwater that’s in the water heater. I believe that most freshwater rated water capacity tanks include the capacity of the hot water heater....i.e. a 30 gallon capacity may be 24 gal.in the fw tank + 6 gal. In the WH equal a total capacity of 30 gals. That’s how the manufacturers do the math on the rated total capacity.361Views0likes0Comments
