Bike_mech, I am waiting to hear back from Sherptek but yeah the Norweld is still in consideration. Mule is clearing them out right now as they are switching to a new brand. They are marked down quite significantly. Depending on the insurance assessment of my truck the Norweld is definitely...

Kerry, from what I can tell the utility body is bulkier and likely heavier. Also the ones I have seen seem to drop lower than what I think I want impeding clearance. Unless there is some style I am missing.

Oh shoot forgot to mention that here. I am currently in the PNW north of Seattle then will be north of Portland for a bit before embarking on long term road trip.

Good day all, I recently had an incident and may have to replace my truck bed. If this is the case I am strongly considering putting on a flat bed with storage boxes to increase my storage on my rig. Current set up is a '16 F-350 with a Northstar 850SC. I am looking for input from those...

Hi all! Here is my recent acquisition: '16 F350 CCLB with a '17 Northstar 850SC. I am new to the truck camper and overland world so looking for some help/suggestions on upgrades (what, if anything, I should do to suspension, wheels, tires, etc). Looking to do an extended road trip and want to...

So its been a few weeks but thanks to y'alls help in my research I pulled the trigger on a 2016 F350 w/ 6.7L !! Here she is with my new to me Northstar 850SC and a couple of pics of the 850sc. One with the custom bumper the guy I bought from built. It has a platform for a Honda generator and a...

Thanks All! After listening here and talking to several friends and diesel gurus I think I will make an offer on one the 2012. We'll see how that goes. If I can swing a deal it'll be good cause they offer a free lifetime powertrain warranty so if the turbo issue of the '11-'12s rears its ugly...

Bul, I will definitely ensure exactly what it has through receipts, calling the shop that did the install, as well as taking to an independent 3rd party shop to verify everything is there and done correctly for the bulletproofing/lift. I am definitely a bit concerned with the price but I live...

Hi all, I am new to most of all this. I have been looking into what I want to get for a road trip and found the Northstar campers to be very desirable for the cost and what you get. I have found a very clean 2017 I am likely going to make a deal on. However, I will require a larger rig so...

Copy thanks! One more question: many on hear have stated that the Palomino Backpacker rigs are not very good; especially in comparison to the Northstars. I was wondering why that seems to be the sentiment? The Palomino's appeared very nice to me when I toured them at the local dealership but...

Hello, just stumbled on this thread. I was curious about weights. I have an F-150 and was considering something very similar but get very conflicting info on true ability to handle a camper rig. Of course would get airbags but my issue is that with just curb weight of truck plus a camper I am...

Copy. Just let me know I will be driving to the east side on Friday late morning timeframe if you had availability and also depending on exactly where you are located. I usually take the 5 to 405 to 90 but can alter if needed.

Hello, can you tell me where you are located in Seattle a bit more specifically? Like others, really prefer the 4 door but would be interested to at least come take a look and see in person how it feels cab size wise. I am near Everett.

Hello, I am looking for anyone with experience with the smaller truck bed campers. I have a 2013 F-150 short box and have been considering one of the small 1/2 ton rated truck campers (Four Wheel campers, Palamino backpacker, or Adventure 80RB). My main concern is my truck has 7200# GVWR and...

Thanks for the replies. I believe that this deal is a scam (surprise surprise). I got my hopes up a bit when I first saw the add but I feel certain it was a scam so I blocked the scammer from e-mail and will move on. I still like the idea of 4x4 so not sure what I will do. Initial plan for...

Hello, I am looking for advice/info on the Tigers? I had been considering a camper van with quigley before discovering these rigs. One came up on Craigslist today and I e-mailed seller within a couple hours but when I went back to look at the add it had been flagged by Craigslist. The seller...
