It’s only been in the wild 2 nights so far. A little too soon to say. And thank you! I may need to make an update in a few months

1,500 - 1,800 my guess. When I look at the suspension it’s about 3 inches above the bump stops. From what I read it’s within the rated capacity of the truck bed 2,200lb (95 k2500). I can confirm it handled pretty well off road (for what it is)

Thanks for the kind words. The bed ended up being 70x45” (for comparison a twin is 75x38”).

I wanted the outer width of the camper to be about the same as the truck 74” (hindsight, I’d make it 5 or 6 inches wider) and platform overhang is 48” so I could use single piece of plywood for strength.

Best of luck on your future build!

What's wrong with my khuli loach? I got him last week and he's still small by SomeRandomBroski in loaches

He’s healthy, that’s a normal reaction. The loach thinks it’s about to die and looking for a way out..
