What gears and tire size are you running to get 15 mpg in a 6.2 with a camper?

I have my 83 grandby bolted through my truck bed in the front and I use turn buckles in the rear. I occasionally need to tighten the turn buckles but have never had to tighten the nuts on the bolt. I have been running my FWC camper like this for years and it has been pretty trouble free FWIW.

Will this fit a 2014 F250 4x4? Where are you located in CA?

Rad rig GLWS! @Regcabguy you mean like these? https://crewmfg.com/collections/pack-your-trash-1/products/surf-pack-your-trash-sticker

Peppermint essential oil works wonders to deter mice and rats. I use it in a spray bottle mixed with some water and spritz throughout the motor and around the bottom of my camper/truck.

I have two smaller renogy 100 watt panels on the roof of my 1983 Grandby. I have room to fit one more 100 watt panel (while still leaving the other half of the roof open for surfboards), and I may do this in the near future. Make sure you have gas shocks to help raise the roof as it will get...

@PSD I am currently driving a 2014 F250 with the 6.2 Gas. I loved my 7.3's but my last one began to seriously nickel and dime me and financially it made sense to get a newer truck with a third the miles (selling old truck + potential cost of new transmission and suspension update= cost of new...

@PSD beautiful build I sure miss my OBS's sometimes. You might have some luck finding those clips here: https://shop.broncograveyard.com/Hardware/products/259/

@angelajonesepdm what product would you recommend to re-seal a FWC Grandby Roof? Will your products seal over seams and screws on a roof?

If you don't mind a quick hi-jack I have a question for the folks here that have more experience with gearing and tires than I do. I have a 2014 6.2 with 3.73's and stock my truck came with 245/75r17's (31.5's) FWIW. The PO put on 275/65r18's (32.1's). I am looking into up sizing to a...

This thing is too cool not to share (it is not mine but I wish it was): https://imperial.craigslist.org/rvs/d/niland-1998-mitsubishi-fuso-fg/7231966011.html

@WASURF63 GLWS its a beautiful rig!! Any chance you have a link to where you got the board racks? I avoid strapping logs to the roof at all costs unless I am doing a proper trip.

@Motafinga I miss this truck for sure. Everytime that I see a clean OBS go by my head is still on a swivel. I still plan on flat bedding or modifying a utility bed for my new to me 2014 6.2 super duty. Won't lie the new truck is amazing in comparison to my old 7.3.

Bet it was originally made for an 8 foot bed (based on the factory looking roof) and then they chopped it to fit a short bed truck.

Sold!
