I did not get it at the show, however my dealer still sold it to me at the RV show price! Except the slide doesnt retract quite right so its going back to camping world to get adjusted. When its retracted it doesnt sit flush on one side.. So back she goes. Taking her camping next weekend!

Ok guys need some input from y'all if you have either of these campers...

Looking at upgrading from our pop up. Here are the two models we are currently looking at: 2015 Wildwood X Lite 261bhxl or 2015 Summerland 2600tb. Looking for pro's and cons of both

Now leaning towards the Summerland. Any one have one? Likes dislikes?

Default Before and after

We were somewhat spontaneous with buying our new camper last fall and my truck wasn't where I wanted it to be. The first pic is with a stock setup, including factory P-rated tires. The second and third pic are current. Over the winter I upgraded to a 275/65/20 Goodyear Duratrac tire, add Sensatrac shocks and an airbag kit to the rear and a 2" level to the front. Going up in size on the tires was personal preference and more for looks, but going with the heavier tire over the General P-rated was a must. I love the Sensatracs, this is my second SCrew that I've put them on. The airbags seem to help the ride but more importantly, they keep the rear end up to match the leveling spacers that I added to the front

Our first trip this weekend (we've used everything in the driveway), we don't have a tow package so we were limited to 5000, so we had to really look to find a light weight trailer with a 3 burner stove and oven. We finally found a Chalet Takena, 4500 lbs, 25 gal water, 30 grey and 30 black tanks, queensize bed. aluminum frame, foam and filon sandwich walls.

Nice! The new tire package really makes the truck.
