Congrats and enjoy. Looks really nice. Post some photos when you start putting some gear in it for a trip.

I just wanted to thank you guys for all of the input. I am now looking at some other options in the 3/4 ton range. My wife did the math for me and I realized the 6 or 7 mpg savings is not as much as a big deal as I thought. I hope this helps someone else who is thinking about a fuel efficient...

I plan on attending one of these events, as I have not been before. Is one show larger than the other? Any reason to pick one over the other? Just trying to plan, before I put in my vacation time.

I have decided it's is time for a new truck and just starting my research. MPG is probably a top priority for me as I take 2 cross country trips yearly and they are about 8K miles each. I have just used a fiberglass cap/topper in the past and may go that route again or maybe one of the popup...

Never heard of Enduro. I will check them out thx.

Thanks. I will check out OVRLND. I did hear GFC is working on a 8' version.
