I'm about to get a 2009 F-150 w/ the max payload, tow, camper, snowplow prep package (8200 GVWR).
I'd like to get a truck camper and found a 9-1/2 Shadow Cruiser for a pretty good price. Can the F-150 handle this camper? I'm sure I'll be within the GVWR, but I'm still not sure that I should go this big. Any input? |

My wife and I drove to bar harbor maine for maryland @ 16 mpg average. you should have no problem just inflate your tires up to their max psi. |
