Default 2014 with my new camper setup !

5.0 XLT with a custom built 2012 Westland 80W camper ,only weighs 1280lbs full of water and propane , running Torklift tiedowns and turnbuckles. I ditched the plastic bedliner and just running a Dee Zee rubber bed mat , camper stays put and does not budge a bit even during off roading .

Im also running Timbren SES a must have for hauling weight like this to prevent sag , since these pics i have also have added Monroe Sensa-Trac coil over Shock Absorber, They add about a inch of rear ride hight , it sits higher in the rear now with the camper . This combination is great if your not big on airbags .

The truck does great with the camper on hills mountain highways , seems to maintain 60mph on any hill in 4th gear , the towhaul mode works great for gearing down on hills , think my gearing is 3.55, tires are 33' and Fox 2.0 coilovers in the front .

I bought the camper barely used privately for $9500 Canadian , its a 2012 and was used once maybe , very mint . New the Westland 80W ranges from 20k to 24k canadian depending on options , so i think i did very well . My payload rating is 1700 something with passenger weight . Thankfully my camper was custom built with no toliet , no water heater and a double west to east bed instead of the queen north south on most 80w , shaving over 200 pounds off the 1500 pound standard model. I much prefer west to east beds in a camper being 6'4 tall , can fully stretch out in my bed with almost a foot to spare , a north to south my feet hang over .
