    Looking for lightweight option for RAM 1500 TRX

    I have my new TRX on order and should arrive before end of the year and need to figure out how to make it work for camping since I sold my 4x4 ambulance conversion. Problem is TRXs have a pretty low payload. So I started looking into the lightweight pop up topper options and even the RSI...

    Lightweight options for a Ram 1500 TRX

    Looking for light weight pop up or even non pop up options for my Ram 1500 TRX I have on order. I've seen the options like FWC Project M and AT Atlas, but I have a couple concerns: They are all 6-12mos out and I'm still concerned it may cause the very soft TRX suspension to squat. I don't...

    Insuring DIY Hardside Camper Build on chassis cab truck

    Wondering those of you that made custom hardside campers on Chassis cabs, how you have them insured. I have a 1996 F350 Chassis cab ambulance. When I bought it, my DMV had no record of it being an ambulance, just an incomplete vehicle. They wouldn't even let me title it as a truck because it...
