Rolled up to the ghost town of Bonanza, near Salida Colorado, we really love the Duramax power plant and the turtle top, both awesome set ups. Even with a very high platform and an 8inch thick queen size mattress, the high top allows me (5'11") to sit upright on the bed with a foot to spare above me. The van weighed in at 7900 lbs with nothing in it but the bed frame. I figure loaded with a full tank, 20 gal water, food, 2 big ice chests, camping stuff, the camp kitchen, a family of 4, 2 dogs etc we roared over Wolf Creek Pass (10800ft) at about 5 tons of fun and more like 7 tons with the trailer in tow. I just added tint, bed platform, truck vault camp kitchen, 265/75/16 BFG ATKO tires, I have a 2.5 inch lift, Hella lights and some other goodies next. My wife and kids set me up with my very own footed camo jammies to keep me toasty and warm...
