You need suspension, you're already over the maximum payload rating with just the camper in the truck and you plan to load up enough stuff to live out of it still.

If that's all the damage it looks pretty easily repaired with a new lower bumper. I don't know how long it would take to get a replacement for a brand new vehicle but I'd hold out for that or whatever you deem an acceptable discount as compensation for a repaired part.

The truck looks like an awesome setup for touring in comfort. I just have to poke fun at that though - a Toyota Corolla can make it to the Arctic Circle and back with no problems on either of the North American roads.

You're unlikely to find one used as I don't think they've made more than ten of the Nomads and production times have been running close to a year. You'd likely be able to get a different pop up camper from another manufacturer quite a bit sooner even if ordering new.

I was searching for an answer to this question...anyone find out if it works in the last two and a half years?

The sticker on your door is the correct number, it is reduced for every option added to the vehicle. The base model spec is always higher, the sticker accounts for the added things like optional floor mats, a different radio, side steps, leather seats, etc.

Those RV guys are wrong, they either don't know or they are making stuff up to sell campers. The sticker on your door jamb is the maximum weight you can put in the truck. Hook up a trailer with a 700lb tongue weight and your remaining payload is 1700lbs for people, gear, stuff in the bed, etc...

Super simple, at least when travelling from Alaska to the lower 48 and back. Fill out a form ahead of time, tell the border agent and spend a few minutes inside to pay $20ish and get a piece of paper proving you're authorized to possess and transport the firearm.

For sure, you might not get a 100% accurate answer but it helps flesh out what you read on the state's website. It also gives you an idea on the general department attitude on the subject in the areas you might travel. It's just another bit of information that can be helpful.

Check the individual state laws to ensure however you are carrying it is legal. You can also call a few police departments/sherrif's offices in the state and ask them as well. If you are pulled over just politely tell the cop when you hand over your license that you are carrying/have a gun in...

USAA told me they cover up to a max of $5k in aftermarket items automatically and don't have an option to increase coverage under your auto insurance. They suggested a separate policy to cover the camper.

It's on the west side of the road in the Gold Daughters parking lot. After I drove by a few times I started looking into what that huge thing was.

It sucks when government has to get involved but it starts to become necessary when people with no understanding of what they're doing or no regard for safety get into drone flying. There wasn't much of a need back when simpler RC planes were it since those pretty much required the operator to...

As long as you aren’t a big/tall guy or plan to carry a lot of weight it seems pretty ideal. A good size and weight to make offroad less of a challenge compared to big adv bikes, adequate power to move it around well enough and a good price for what you’re getting. The description as a lighter...

Sounds like a good time. I’m hoping it actually warms up a bit more tomorrow and I can get out for a nice ride during the afternoon since I don’t have to work for once.

My KLR was great, just a stupid simple machine. My GS is about 50lbs heavier and cost a whole lot more but for my riding is better in every way other than simplicity.

I can’t help you for the exact part, but on one of my old land rovers I had a local hydraulic shop make me new braided stainless lines. It was super simple, I just took them the originals and they had new ones ready in a few days that fit exactly the same but wouldn’t rupture and spew oil onto...

I see no complications or pain in any of the monthly or annual plans.

Both the 4x4 super cab and super crew have a max payload right around 2700lbs, obviously decreased depending on how well optioned out the truck is configured.

If you want a slide in camper (other than a stripped shell model) in a half ton the F150 HDPP is your only real option to stay at or under the payload.
