It is! And it comes with a 3.5 inch spacer to raise it up over the cab. I have the spacer removed.

So I actually just had a Hillsboro Aluminum Flatbed installed this past week on my F150 and couldn’t be happier.

Quote I got from Sherp Tek

I mean that’s definitely not true. Midsize truck payload is what, 1000 lbs? F250 payload is over 3000. So it’s like 2-3x as hard to overload it. But I get your point - weight tends to add up quick.

If you’re going with an F250/F350 you can definitely afford to be less weight conscious than on a midsize or even half ton pickup. Also, a lot less lead time for steel.

I am in the midst of doing research on flat beds for my 8 foot bed F150. Ute aluminum flat beds were about $6k with install. Weigh 400lbs Norweld $10k without install. Steel flatbed is $4000 with install, weighs 600lbs. I’m probably going to go with steel due to availability and cost. 200lbs...

I’ve got a red pro link if you’re interested.

I’m in Austin area right now but going to start driving back west on Sunday.

Are you willing to part the slide? I might be able to pick up.

Ive been living out of a FWC Grandby Shell for the last couple months and my biggest complaint about the FWC is in regards to their electrical wiring which I know hasn’t changed much. Poorly crimped connectors, weird/excessive connections, too small wire, etc and now they are using overpriced...

At least for my 2018 3.3 there’s ZERO room under the hood for a spare battery - it was quite a shock coming from a Tacoma where I managed to squeeze 3x batteries and an air compressor under the hood and now I struggled to fit an sPOD.

For anyone interested it looks like Falken now makes their AT3W in a 255/80/17. Cheap!

I think those are mostly issues with moving to a larger tire size, not necessarily related to the skinny tire size - in fact I think having the skinny tire size on actually mitigated a lot of those issues over moving to a 285 size tire.

I have a 2018 F150 (XL :ROFLMAO:) with Falcon shocks and a FWC Grandby and I am a huge fan. I have 3.73 gears and a pay load package and I’m about 700 over - I plan on slimming it down a bit, but I’m more or less content with it as is.

I had a set of Icon Stage 4 in my old Tacoma I was never a huge fan of, and when I got my F150 I wanted to do things “right” the first time and just get Kings. I ended up getting the Falcons because of the price point, and I’m overall very happy with my decision. I have a Four Wheel Camper...

Could you build 100 campers though? I’m pretty sure there lead time is something along those lines

Uhhh, that post you quoted is 8 months old. Both companies prices have changed since my initial post. I still stand by what I said, and while the price difference might have gotten bigger you will also get the Drifter sooner (the GFC lead time is like 12 months now which is crazy..good problem...

I am debating between these and Kings for my 2018 F150 with a Four Wheel Camper. What tire size are you running? You mentioned 285, which I assume is a 33, but I’d like to run 35s if possible. Did you get a new UCA? How’s the alignment without one?

This sold, sorry.

So, after much consideration it's time for me to sell my Vagabond Outdoors Drifter. I love the camper, but the 5 foot Tacoma bed is just too small to live out of during the winter - during the summer I could spend the majority of my time outside, but during the winter its much more difficult and...
