At present, I don't own either a truck or camper. Yes, I know that trucks and campers need to match (center of gravity issues, overhang, etc.),but are there modifications that one can do (storage box, porch overhang, etc.) to fit a short bed onto a long bed or vice versa. My instinct is to purchase a long bed truck, and if absolutely necessary, adapt a shorter camper to fit. What are the drawbacks and disadvantages of this approach and are there any advantages with extra storage space?
