I have never had a slide in camper, only bumper hitch, but I have seen way too many people on the road trying to use a slide in camper on half ton trucks and the back of truck would be draging the ground with the front wheels about bouncing along with no control over the truck. They should be outlawed on half ton for peoples safty. You need a minimum of a 3/4 ton or even a 1 ton for safty. Those campers are a lot heavier than people think and then most hang over the back of the bed for 3' to tip the truck that much more. Those campers are as heavy a body as the camper bodys that are put on the dual wheel 1 ton truck chassies. Father-in-law had one, 12' body on 1 ton Dodge and that thing was so heavy a standard jack would not lift the back to change a tire. For that camper and pulling a trailer look for not a 3/4 ton but a full 1 ton truck. You want control and a 3/4 ton with standard supencion will not give you that and a trailer will only make things worse. Keep yourself and others on the road safe and go with a 1 ton and an extended cab with longer wheelbase than standard cab will also give better control.
