All ActivityMost RecentMost LikesSolutionsWife wants to move to a Class A, or C - biggerI have had a Bigfoot Truck Camper for several years now, in fact this is my second camper. Every two years I buy a new truck just to haul the camper around. So between the camper and truck I have a fair amount of money invested in truck camping. I hardly use the truck for anything beside truck camping. The kids no longer go camping with us but the grand kids do, so my wife wants to move to a Class A, or C camper. I have been to Alaska with my truck camper and in every corner of Canada plus several different States in the United States. I like my truck camper mainly because I can take it anywhere. You may have noticed that I didn't said "my wife wants to move upto a Class A or C. That's because I don't figure its a move up. I was just wondering if I am the only person out there getting pressure to go to a different type of camper? I have won for 2019 but 2020 is coming soon. LOL19.5 Truck tiresI only drive my truck in the summer with my camper on. I bought the 19.5 tires and rims in 2011. today, They look in great shape. Maybe 30,000 miles on them. How do I know when to replace them? Do I go by mileage or age? They are taken off truck every winter and always stored inside. Thanks for your opinion. PaulRe: If price was not a consideration, Gas or Diesel?Diesels is the only way to go with a truck camper in the box.Re: New GuyWelcome:Torklift InternationalIn 2011 I was given a set of Stableloads to install on my 3500 SRW Chevy by Torklift. I have since installed them on a 2015 & 2016 truck. Today I installed them on my 2018 model. They are still in great shape. They are an excellent product and the only suspension option that I have except my 19.5 tires and rims. As I was installing them today I could not help but think Torklift International was a great company with excellent products. I have also installed the same set of Torklift frame mounted Truck Camper tie downs on each of the 4 trucks above and they are working great also. With only minor adjustments on rear tie downs. PaulRe: Finally found a BigfootCongrads excellent camper. I had a garage fall on mine, but I replaced it. PaulRe: So would you go with a built in propane generator today?I agree, my propane generator is very convenient. PaulRe: Common on-board Generators Found on most newer Truck CampersOnan 2500 watt in Bigfoot. PaulRe: Steel flatbed on Chevy 3500 SRWAlways good to listen to reality. PaulRe: My Name On The Torklift StableLoad PackagingGood product, good company, good recommendation. Paul
