Had a sweet 9 ft Alpenlite camper all picked out today, then looked in my manual to make sure I could haul it.. NOT.... The camper weighs 2950#, and this is the smallest in the line.. WTF??
Now the question.. Could installing the air bladder spring supports that support up to 5000# work?
I need to be able to haul my boat or I would just get a trailer.. I really only need the camper to sleep in when I work every weekend at a hospital that is 1 1/2 hrs from home.. I am beginning to wonder what the heck a 1/2 ton truck is worth besides towing and hauling yard trimmings.. I can remember my dad hauling an old, heavy, 8 ft camper with his '69 Ford F-150... A bit squirrley at times, but nothing ever broke...
What say you all??
Thanks..
