Truck campers

I was shocked to tell you the truck, i thought i was gonna get around 9. THen when i filled up and caculated it, i had to recheck it a few times to make sure it was right. :redneck:


hahahahaa, im excitied to see what kind of milage i will get in the new dodge towing my jeep, and then comparing it to when i towed with my dads tundra:eeek:
 
I have never weighed my truck, camper, trailer & Jeep. I would guess my trailer weighs around 1,000lbs?? Anyone else?? How much does a normal flat bed trail weigh?
The gooseneck I am looking at weighs 4,000lbs. So if things work out and I get it I'll let you know what it does to my MPG.
Right now I get 11 MPG fully loaded.

Gonna have all that by Moab?

My trailer prolly weighs about 1500 with all the crap I got in the box on front.

wow! thats pretty shitty mileage.

When we went over to yakima a few weeks ago fully loaded with the race trailer, car, tool box, tires,5 Grown men. We crossed the scales at almost 19,000 lbs. I got 13.9 miles to the gallon going there and back.

Now that i typed this post, im assuming a camper acts as a huge wind block.


Yep that camper makes a hell of a differance.

What kind of truck do you tow with i forgot?
 
Just picked up my gooseneck today 28' made in 1977 on the registration it say's it weighs 2900lbs but I'll be taking it too the scales sometime this week too find out forsure..That damn trailer tow's really nice just need to get 6 new tire's for it..
 
We got an '04 AF990 in late '05 and saved quite a bit versus buying new. It is a heavy bastard, but I have a dually so it holds it pretty well. Here's a pic of the combo truck/camper/trailer:
