    Somebody proves all the haters wrong......

    Not my truck. I did walk over to check the specs of the camper out of curiosity......... 2560lbs dry weight.

    Godspeed.

    Finger-light power steering on those ski-mountain access road switchbacks...should be good for a few adrenaline shots. :eek:

    Poor truck... I drove my brothers T100 with a smaller pop up camper from southern utah to north Idaho, it was an awful drive. I imagine this setup would be even worse as that camper is huge. No thanks! Tell that guy what I tell my brother, just sleep in the bed with a canopy, what the heck more do you need...

    1400 lbs. puts me about 1” off of the bump stops on original leafs. Guy must be riding on frame.

    If he's on bags its probably just aired down. He can air up to drive and should level out. The weight and wind would still be hard, because the truck isn't black.

    Looks like the Loveland ski area lot... which means he had a huge climb to get there, whether he came from the east or west side. Brutal.

    I’ve seen this rig on Loveland pass. Sketchy! I’m mostly just jealous that you are making turns at Loveland.

    That is just crazy and dangerous. Whomever owns that potential disaster should be removed from the gene pool.

    That's a fun gig. I usually make turns on the pass unless it's closed or the conditions are bad/unsafe. I buy a few Loveland 4paks for these days!

    Biggest problem is the cog of the camper is probably behind the axle on that 1st gen.

    I'd still send it though. :benchpress:
