Pulled the trigger on a 1995 Dodge Laramie with 99k on the clock powered by a 5.9 cummins, it's an automatic with a SixPac cabover, the photo shows it with a different camper he has 2 trucks a 1992 with 68k and the 1995 with 99k both cummins, I chose the 95 because it was so clean and comfy. $7500
needs a good cleaning but good to go. I think separating the house and truck part is paramount for me (any of you that have seen my rig will attest to).
 
Wagoneer: Great looking rig and congrats to you; I know you have been wanting a vehicle change for awhile.

Scrub . . . scrub . . . scrub, and then it will be all yours! Keep us posted with more pics!
 
Good morning earlybird the slide-in that will come with it is a full 8 footer and weighs 1300Lb on a 3/4 ton truck this one is a 6 footer and is trashed.
just paid for it and doing the slide-in change Monday. Tuesday transfer stuff by Thursday should be ready for the road. I love that big van but it got me so unorganized it was always so full of "STUFF"
 
Will be picking it up later this week. Pics will follow but seriously it's nothing revolutionary. It is a better direction for me to follow. The best thing about this change is the fact that it's already built out so for me a no brainer plug and play which will help me get out way more often.
 
Congrats!! I'm in a truck camper now and adjusting to the layout and small space. There are many benefits--sounds like you are aware of some and will discover more. Enjoy!
