Sexy truck, WAYYYYY more truck than you needed for that 6k camper though, at least you get to enjoy the open road without dying of random acts of ******* 18 wheels shooting past you and causing you to poop yourself

Congrats on that beautiful truck!

I know you said you were pleasantly surprised with the mileage....can you share what kind of mileage you've been seeing thus far?

My Apologies I didnt see this post sooner and answer it..

I now have about 110 miles on the truck.. On the way home I did a short jaunt on the interstate and I was seeing 18 or so..I live on country roads, but town is very close so far in a mix of say 60/40 stop and go vs two lane roads i'm getting about 13. I know if I drive normally on the lazy two lanes and no stop and go, it looks like I was in the 17 -or better range.

You nailed it! I know the trailer is not overly heavy, but with the tongue weight, the weight of the hitch itself and all of us in the cab, we were right near our payload limit.. I didnt have much room for anything else if I wanted to.. So figured might as well go bigger, and then I wont get blown around as much on the highway!

Got the Nerfbars on Yesterday so Tiny wife can climb in and out easier now!

Good decision!!! When Mama's happy everyone else can be happy!! Beautiful truck, by the way.
