I'd like to get a camper but currently have an f-150 with a 6.5' bed. I don't want a trailer because I want to pull my drift boat. I also don't want to spend the money to buy a bigger truck.
Does anyone have experience using an f-150 to haul a camper? What camper models would work? I know I really need a bigger truck but am hoping I can make this work until I feel like spending a bunch of money.
Just make sure you don't go over your GVW and your truck is set up for hauling. I mean tranny cooler, bigger radiator gearing etc. I had a 2010 Ford 4.6L 4x4 that I THOUGHT was set up for trailer/campers. It had none of the equipment to do it. It would overheat, derate ( loss power), gutless, you name it. I sold it and bought a truck that would. The truck was very nice, but it wasn't a towing/hauling truck.
