    ranger build

    Nice find. My wife is rocking a 2019 Ranger FX4 Supercab with a GFC. It has been a great truck -- super reliable and great mileage for a mid-sized truck! Watching your build!

    Owners of domestic HD/commercial trucks - was it a good choice?

    Good question. I googled it a bit a the numbers are a bit difficult to find, but it looks like 48' (diameter, curb-to-curb) for the F450 vs 56' for the F350. I have not personally measured this, but I can tell you from personal experience, when turning in a parking lot, I was totally surprised...

    Owners of domestic HD/commercial trucks - was it a good choice?

    I bought the truck lightly used and it already had a super single conversion with the Conti's. In truth, I doubt I actually need such tires, but as noted the truck already had several mods, including the SS conversion. I've not done a ton of research on tires, but I do think smaller tires...

    Owners of domestic HD/commercial trucks - was it a good choice?

    My wife and I are mid-50's and planning to do almost exactly what your and your wife are planning to do. I plan to retire May 2025 and commence traveling for several months at a time. Our build is just coming together this month, hence I do not have experience to share regarding durability or...

    2022 Dodge Ram 3500 Bighorn crew SOOOLLDDD

    I just saw this rig/camper today up at OAT in Olympia, WA where my wife and I were taking a look at our just completed camper (which is identical to the one in the add). This truck/flatbed/camper is a smoking deal and in immaculate condition, with all the logistics already sorted out. GLWS

    WTB: Any LMTV/FMTV that is already registered in California

    As a native Californian I fully understand you desire to skip the genuflecting/grovelling at your local CA DMV. I'd just register the thing in Montana, quite easy. DJM

    Thoughts on 2023 Ford Super Duty for Family Travel?

    Payload or towing capacity? Here is payload for F350 vs F450, payload in all comparable configurations is higher on the F450 than comparable F350. I'll add that I have a chassis cab vs PU. DJM

    Thoughts on 2023 Ford Super Duty for Family Travel?

    I think your reasoning is spot on. I can not speak specifically to the Tremor, but the 7.3 and the Super Duty platform is a solid package for extended travels. Consider bed length -- it is where your living space will be. We went with the "Super Cab" 60" cab-to-axle, with a 168" wheelbase...

    F450 chassis cab build -- composite box mounting

    Hello, I am just getting started on the research for building the camper box on a new-to-me 2020 F450 chassis cab. I will most likely go with a total composite box (or similar). As far as configuration is concerned, I might forgo the cab over and go for a simple 'box' style habitat. I've...

    SOLD 2005 Dodge Ram 2500 with XP/Nimbl Camper

    Th Listed or sold? There are quite a few high end rigs (US$100,000+) listed currently, but they are not moving quickly. The market has slowed down on large ticket items, at least here in the US; the housing market has significantly cooled, which always deeply impacts the US economy. With...

    2000 F250 with stock 7.3L / 2020 OEV CampX #40

    Think at half the price, it still would have a problem moving. If you look over in the classifieds there are a number of nice rigs from $70K - $120k that are not so different from this rig and have about 1/2 the mileage, and are not selling so quick. Just my opinion. BTW, I've chatted with...

    2000 F250 with stock 7.3L / 2020 OEV CampX #40

    I saw the price reduction. It is a great rig, for sure, but I (still) think the price is not realistic.
