    Does your tailgate stay on when you have the camper on ? hard to tell in the very last photo you posted. Very nice rig I have an FJ cruiser and the wife has a 2006 F250 we are thinking of setting her truck up like yours.

    It's funny how people think having the big tires and lift the thing is going to roll over because of the center of gravity so high. Driving one is the only way to see how stable the truck really is on and off road.

    when we first started I left the tailgate on. We used the step inside of it and we left fire wood and a 2k genset on it. Plus it is nice to have a platform off the ground to shower on and to get out of your nasty/dirt hiking gear.

    Too bad you didn't make it to Expo. I was really stoked about checking out your set up in person. Maybe another time somewhere around Moab on my next trip down there.
