    rtt vs slide in camper

    I have been perfectly happy in an RTT, but the wife wants a camper or van. I thought about the van for a minute but just not a van guy so camper it is. I have to say last winter during a very cold late season elk hunt (-10), I was sleeping in my rtt and freezing. While my buddy was sitting...

    I know that the diesel will be more expensive. I have owned one before.

    rtt vs slide in camper

    Thanks for the input. I go between MT and CA, so I know the passes, and cold weather well. Hitting ice at HWY speed in any truck is terrifying, my wife has rolled 2 4runners. I have driven lots of older vehicles all over the country. I know the annoyance it can be. I know the tundra is the...

    I actually called a local toyota dealer to ask about a tundra. They told me payload on a 2020 is just about 1700

    rtt vs slide in camper

    such mixed reviews on these platforms. I called a local well respected off-road shop and asked my trusted mechanic buddy, both said 7.3 in a heartbeat. They said the tundra will ride nicer, but 7.3 will work all day with very little effort. The tundra will eventually struggle and will be...

    Forgot to ask, Are you running 35's and airbags? I should just ask what suspension setup are you running?

    rtt vs slide in camper

    ha ha , the repairs are real, I remember. This thing is so cherry, I promise you, That's why it's such a hard decision. The truck has been a one-owner CA truck. It's an older guy, who owned it. He added the 50 gal tank. It has 106k on it. He just replaced the tie rods, oil pan, shocks, and few...

    rtt vs slide in camper

    I am 100% going slide in camper. The only issue I am having is I found an immaculate 2003 7.3 F250 . I can not make up mind if I should snatch it up or go tundra

    maybe the tundra is the way to go, I have been reading about upgrading the fuel tank, alot of people say not to do it. Does anyone know why?

    Old Man Emu - Tundra Lift - 2"? More like 4"!

    I know with the Tacoma's the lift height is advertised the same across the models as well. When I have ordered ( I always use wheelers, cruiser outfitters, or rocky road). They have helped me dial in the height with the different models.

    rtt vs slide in camper

    thank you for the feedback. I have owned diesel's before and know what a PITA they can be. I am currently torn. I do not tow regularly enough to truly justify a diesel. I know purchasing a 7.3 would be overkill. I still might have to do it. I know the Tundra is a smarter decision. I really just...

    rtt vs slide in camper

    just to be clear, the camper is not for my 87 its for a full size. Either going to get 2000-2003 7.3 Powerstroke f250 or 06-07 Duramax LBZ with the Alison.

    rtt vs slide in camper

    I was not really sure where to post this, I am posting here in my favorite section haha. All the years camping, I have always either slept inside my pick up bed with a shell or just used a ground tent. I have stayed with friends in RTT's before. I think they are great. The wife and I were...
