I've started this journey to find a slide-in camper. I think I found a Palomino Bronco 1250 that I'm satisfied with (around $4000).
So I have a few things that I know right off that I need to deal with: I have to switch out the standard profile (14" tall) a/c for a low profile unit. I need to get tie-downs to fit my truck. I need to get a "cart" of some sort (homemade or off-the-shelf). Any advice on keeping the cost of these things down? I especially think the tie-downs are outrageously priced--seems like each tiny pieces is $200 and need about 8 pieces. (Sorry to ask about 3 different items in the same post--I know that scatters the responses sometimes.) |

Dont know about the cart or ac but I have torklift tiedowns and they were 250.00 for complete set for front. I would not use anything else but torklift. JMO
