Two things I forgot to mention about overhang. Not the front. More about the sides. If it's raining - water drips all over your head when you get in and out of truck. Also pretty easy to bang your head when getting in if not careful. I'm only 5'9". I assume taller people bang their heads even more. When the campers are on either of my trucks - I can hardly feel them nor notice when driving. Might be a lot different though on a 1/2 ton truck which I'd never do. I absolutely hate pulling trailers and a small class-C RV or a truck camper is what I much prefer. Nice thing about a truck and camper combo is the ability to go off road and into deep woods if you want (with 4WD). I spent a lot of time fixing up what was going to be my "ultimate" 4WD RV. A 1986 Chevy diesel Blazer with a Hallmark RV body on it. First version had a 6.2 diesel (stock), 3.08 axles, 15" tires and a TH400 trans. Got a best of 16 MPG. I then put a turbo on it, a 4L60 OD trans, 3.73 3/4 ton axles with 16" tires, etc. Got all done and the thing still gets 16 MPG. I stopped using it with the high diesel prices and am now using a Toyota RV with a 2.4 gas engine.

No. I am just happy to have their friendship. At least the word "farmer" is in my title. But what is the attraction? How can I explain the sensation and exhilaration I feel when I turn the key and hear the engine come to life (most
