  Thanks for the vid! 5000lbs, wow! I have the 990 with only one slide, it’s 3400lbs which my F350 dually doesn’t even notice but I don’t know if it would like 5k. Your 450 was the best choice I think! The best take away was the red tape. Don’t know why I never thought of that. It takes a lot of guessing out of the equation when you do the initial line up, thanks for that.

  Would you happen to have a part number for the Fox landing in the back on your build sheet? My camper is a 2022 1150, the bumper looks like yours, but both the dealer I bought it from and northwoods themselves are useless in telling me what version of the Fox landing steps would work. I would buy one to try, but of course no returns if it doesn’t fit.

  I bought myself a pair $3 "FROCKS" at the dollar store back in 2020 when all of the "Non-Essential" aisles were roped off at Walmart and shoe stores were closed (imagine not being able to buy footwear for your 4 yr old in the summer, and having to schedule an appointment to buy work boots???), and they quickly became my 'go to' slip-ons for everyday use, even when riding my scooter around town. Four years later I'm a CROC convert, and they are well worn but still 'kicking' around. I've since bought a few pairs of Walmart "FROCKS" in different colors for ten bucks, so they don't get exclusive use, but I just can't imagine paying $60-$80 Cdn. for a branded pair of what is essentially a pair of dense foam garden clogs that at a guess will be 10% more comfortable...remember, these things were originally carved out of wood.

  I've just seen a man who is even more careful than I am. Good on you my friend! It would be a much nicer world for buying used items, if everyone was as careful. I love how thorough your videos are, I watch other videos and I'm constantly annoyed because they clearly just skipped some feature or part of the camper, well done. I'm just a couple hundred km West of you (South of Calgary), where do you like to camp? I have a 9 year old son, he's pretty mature and doesn't need a kids playground, wifi, or a pool, (we live rural) so he's happy with fishing, dirt biking, and walking/riding trails (or just playing with a camp fire). Do you have any favourite spots? Oh yeah! What year is your truck? I have a 2017 F-450.

Very nice camper but I ordered a 975 Lance, I hope it's good for winter, 2024 model, my last camper was a 2023 Northern Lite, primitive stuff on the camper but kept you warm. My wife would LOVE a big TV. lol, she camps to watch TV, but she's a walker. We are older people and not in good health. Wondering about your truck and how it handles the rig. VERY NICE RIG!

I’m relieved to know it seems all the big truck campers are challenging as heck to get on 😂. Next time i will do centre tape lines as u have. 🍻
