Hello, I am a new member here. I am changing from a 5th. wheel camper to a truck camper . I have a 2004 dodge 1 ton dually diesel long bed. My problem is I don't know what size camper will be right for our needs. we may have as many as 4 adults some times but mostly just 2 or 3 . I do want a dry bath ,A/c furnace ,most all common items . I am wanting a used one . I was told that a Lance is the best but that to me is hear say . We camp 2 to 3 weeks a year and some weekends . I need advice from all you good folks . Thank You.

I don't believe the Palomino is a higher end brand. Lighter usually means cheaper made if you are comparing size for size. The Lance will be one of the higher end brands from construction methods and weight. Lance switched from using all wood framing to aluminum back around 2005. If you are serious about the Lance get the serial number and call the factory in California and see if they can advise you on the framing material. Wood rots, aluminum won't!
