I've crossed the Buffalo at Woolum a few times myself!

Just another day amongst the trees.
This pull-out with an old fire-ring on a forest road happened to be a small cow pasture. :D

Are those glass windows in your camper? How do you like them? Manufacturer? Do you have any experience with Artic Tern?

They are a dual pane insulated glass with aluminum frames. Made by Hehr. Absolutely love them. This camper has been on the road since 2012, and zero problems. Regardless of temp, from -20 to 140(F) and regardless of wind/rain/snow, they do awesome. And nearly regardless of weather, they can be open without issue.
 
Damnit I’m happy as ******** with my 22’ 250 7.3 Tremor on 305/70-18 Baja Bosses (35.5”), but I’m tempted to upgrade to a 6.7 HO 350 Tremor and going to 38s on a Carli Pin Top level. I’m currently on a Carli Back Country level. I really want to get back into a long bed, and would sacrifice the Tremor option for a SRW 350 LB HO6.7 FX4, but I’ve got a camper on order for my short bed already.

I had a long bed on the last one, found that while it was nice to have that extra 1.25ft, I really didn't use or need it. Ford has a long standard bed, at 6.75ft I feel like 98% of things can be done with it. If you already have a camper on order that can't be changed then I'd stick with the standard bed even if you make the change to a diesel. This 6.7 HO is silly.
 
Been a long time since I have been on this site!! I have had a few build threads on here... a Jeep WJ and a Ram 1500... Sold both... Now on to a Diesel...Nice to have a project Again... Introducing BIG RED..
I found this bone stock in Dec 22 with 137,000 original kilometres on the dial in Miles that is 85,000 for you Southern Boys!!
Since I have owned it I have cavity waxed every single compartment and taken the whole undercarriage apart and undercoated every square inch.
I steam cleaned the entire undercarriage and let it dry for 2 weeks before undercoating and sealing.. I have replaced all front end, adjustable control arms, lift, rear springs, fan cooled atf cooler, BD Sway bars, track bars, trans pan, Fox Shocks, steering stabilizers, the list goes on. Now it drives and steers like it should and there are many future plans!!

Lookin forward to chatting about builds and new projects again!!
Cheers
Eddy
