Thats cool!! Maybe we will see your campers on the fishing channel!

Thats a cool rig, you don't even need fenders in Fl?

Pray4surf- Thats pretty cool. I was thinking of a way to do that, but as usual was making it way too complicated with jack screws or scissors ect. Do you think it will be hard to do? Maybe a torsion spring to assist??

Looks interesting, and i appreciate the reply, but how does it help my situation? I am looking for a large roof top type tent mounted low enough to put long sea kayaks on the roof. The rest of the requirement is keeping my gear dry and secure in the bed. I am not really looking for a portable...

h2os2- thanks, thats about how I want to mount the tent. It would then be easy to mount racks to support the kayaks above the tent. The part I was having a harder time with was how to keep stuff in the bed dry and secure. I had drawn up a frame similar to the one in the second Frontier pic...

Mr. 87- did you ever get your suspension? I have a 2012 2500 Hemi. I spoke with Don T for a while and he suggested a pretty neat combo of things(yet to be purchased.) You know the guy is pretty honest when he recomends a competitors product! (Don does not make coils for a hemi) Don suggested for...

Need some good ideas;Ram crew cab, short bed. Want to have a roof top tent on some kind of frame that keeps the top of the tent below the trucks roof, so I can put 2 kayaks on top. I want dry and preferably secure storage for the truck bed. Bed will have ARB fridge and slide out drawer style...

"pardon me, you got jam on my Tahoe!" Is that what you meant? :)

I am also with rotti, I had a ram 1500 that I was having a custom camper built for. No matter how I crunched the numbers, ( or how much I wanted it to work, I was right at max load with a empty camper and no people, no extra fuel and no beer! So I sold the 1500 and bought a 2500 hemi. I have to...

Motörhead, I had a Retrax brand roll up hard cover, the box that the cover rolls into is pretty deep, maybe 6" from the bed??? (going from memory) so you would not be able to lower it much. Not sure if other brands are smaller, because it's an interesting idea(expensive tho)

looks like fun, I wish we had that kind of stuff here on the east coast. hard to tell from the angle, but it looks like in one spot there you should have had the right side on the rocks! (looked pretty big to straddle :) Do you have full skid plates??

Can't help you decide, but I have a 2012 2500 with a mint chrome grill that I will swap for the black, if you go that route . my truck is midnight blue with black everything but bumpers and grill. :)

So here is some more kudos for being seemingly :) receptive to differing opinions. "it sounds like you have a lot of your own opinions and you're very pro-Phoenix," at this point I am only pro- FAIR I am very picky, if when I pick up my camper in June and its a POS(not likely), I will be the...

I'm new here, but I read the article immediately after it was posted. I felt that it came to some VERY strong conclusions based on very little fact. The video of the Phoenix build showed some poor stitching and implied the rest of the poor build quality would be evident in the pics/video. What I...

Very nice!!! Hope mine comes out as awesome :) Is that the 5.5' bed?? Whats the reason people want the tailgate up/on for?? Security? Porch?

Now that I think about it, it was Mahogany, not teak, still purty tho!

I have not given my build specs to Phoenix yet, Rob wants the big flick details soon, the more minor stuff can wait till closer to build time (June) I was just thinking resale value if I ever tried to sell the camper- would be a lot more limited with a flatbed build(although i suspect the whole...

Hi- Keith in Ct here. Just sent off my deposit to Rob and Cari at Phoenix. Picked a July build slot so I can sneak in a Vacation too. I have 2010 Ram 1500 4x4 quad cab sb with the smaller v8(4.7) I have spent the last several months seriously shopping trucks for a larger TC. I almost (twice)...
