I've never had a truck camper, but one consideration seems to be that for most of them you will need a one ton truck whereas the 5.0 can be easily towed by a half ton. So, when not camping you're...

I wouldn't buy a trailer without an AC...but then again, I live in South Texas. We use it for stops along the way even when traveling to cooler places. Rarely used during the day even in hot places,...

We travel with ours in the up position. But, move the table so one end is up against the back cushions. That puts it in a more neutral position instead of "cantilever" and it seems much sturdier...

Does waxing improve longevity or is it just for looks?

Just wondering if it's worth the trouble to wax the roof? I'm all in on doing the rest cause I like the way it looks, but does the wax do anything other than make it shiny and pretty?

I'm towing my 21NE with a 2022 F-150 Powerboost. Total of maybe 4000 miles so far.
