I am planning on getting a Chevy or GMC 3500 4X4 duely long bed pick up. The Artic Fox dealer is offering a better deal on the 1150 than the 990. My wife likes the added floor space of the 1150 but I am hesitant to pack around that much camper, i.e. one that extends 3 frigg'in feet aft of the truck bed. It just seems like too much overhang even though the duely truck can probably handle it.
I have never driven 1. a truck with a camper 2. a duely diesel truck and 3. a truck with 4000 lbs in the back end so I have zero frame of reference to make an intellegent decision. Because there are two separate components, you can't go to the Artic Fox dealer and take a camper out for a test drive......... :^( So, I am relying on the expertise of forums like this to get some insight into the experence. Are my fears unfounded or not? Thanks, Mike in Oly |
