f250 diesel I just sold a 2011 6.7 diesel. I had a hallmark pop up camper on it and also used it to haul livestock trailers in the 6500 to 8500 lb range. No issues even in the mountains , plenty of power. Never struggled up steep grades and no problems going down steep grades. I got 15-16 mpg...

Thanks the cleats look very sturdy . I can see a bunch of applications for those. Great build!

5x8 Cargo Conversion Very functional build! I like this a lot so much that I think I will copy this! What clips did you use to mount "kitchen " cabinets? Also , how did you mount awnings? Thanks and happy camping. Whiskeycutter

First camper I think Sock Puppet brings up all of the salient points in diesel versus gas. I have owned 5 diesel trucks and loved them but the cost of ownership is high, high cost of diesel makes the fuel economy argument less appealing and repairs /routine maintenance are about twice the cost...

I have finally retired and purchased the truck of my dreams. Things change and I no longer need a full size truck to haul my horse trailer [ sold] and Hallmark pop-up truck camper which be posted on the forum. What I have is : -F250 -21000 miles, still under bumper to bumper warranty till...

first camper I went thru a similar search here in NC. I bought a Hallmark UTE fully self contained popup. Its too big for your truck. I had it on a2011 F250 4x4 diesel. I have since decided to sell both truck and popup and downsize to a teardrop. For full time living the UTE is a good choice...

Torsion axle Luk4mud Thanks for starting this thread. Its answering the questions I have. Torsion axles do have a lot of bounce to the ounce but ride good on road if load is properly balanced. My useage will be same as Hilldweller since I am more of a forest tourist/roadwarrior and not a...

Also looking for teardrop Luk4mud, I have been going thru the same search as you. Would love a Moby1 but was trying to avoid spending $20k. I also saw a Lil Buddy advertised which looks fairly nice but I can't find any info on them. Were you able to find info on Lil Buddy? I also was...
