LONG time lurker, finally posting - GOT MY CAMPER!!!

[naganthunter]

Hi All!

As the subject says, I've been lurking here for...well...years!  I FINALLY got my pop-up!  Flagstaff 228D - fits my needs down to a "t"  - not to mention the new truck I **had** to buy to tow it - 10,500 pounds of towing capacity...not sure it can handle the pop-up!!   :eyecrazy:  

I'm looking forward to getting involved here on the board now that I've finally got my ticket for admission!!

Here are some pics!!

Way to go.  I had to first convice my wife that I needed a bigger truck just in case and then after I got that to wait a year to convice her I needed to tow something bigger since I now had the truck.

Great looking setup.

I'm looking forward to meeting you at the campground.

Congrats and welcome to PUT!

You must have the 6.0L and 4.10 gears. You won't have any problem pulling that or any of a lot bigger trailers. I have the 5.3L and 3.42 gears...wish I had the 4.10's, as I'm pulling a 5000# hybrid with a load of wood, and I can tell I've got 3.42's. But I got a custom tune that helps too, from http://www.wait4meperformance.com.

Congrats - looks great!  Now, why did you wait so long to stop lurking?  I was still tenting for at least two years after I joined this site.  Didn't let that stop me from attending a pop-up rally.  I will say I'm way happier being off the ground now.  Enjoy that new camper!

Congradulations!  Welcome, and lurk no more, (or at the very least - alot less)!

Affirmative on the 6.0L and 4.10.  I was looking at the 5.3/3.42, and darn near bought one until I came across this guy - and for the same price as the 5.3.  Granted, the 5.3 had a lot more foo-foo bells and whistles, I've got EXACTLY what I wanted in the 6.0.  My hope is that we do a few years in the pop-up, then move up to something bigger - this way no need to buy a new TV as well  

And to Cyclone - I have no idea why I lurked for so long.  But I'm glad to finally be out of the no-pop-up-closet
