What did you do to your Ram today???

How much does something like that cost?
too much hahahaha
i've seen/ been in a lot of campers thanks to work but imo GFC is still the perfect balance when it comes to performance and comfort.

I mean, you could pick up a GoFast for ~$6k and then do the transfer with GFC HQ (letting GFC know that you're "transferring the title") and the warranty will apply to you (despite their website says no transfer warranty). For ~$10k you could get a new one financed at 0% interest through GFC, or you could get a slightly used one and then do a full buildout with aluminum extrusion cabinetry, lighting, and even throw in a 100AH LiFEPO4.

The only down side, from my experience, is dirt do get in when you go boogie in the desert. Sure, I could do a vent to create positive airflow but tbh, if I care about it THAT much I'd be looking at a HD and a slide in and forego the going fast part.

Being in the industry for so long I've drawn the conclusion that with things like these it's always tradeoffs. You want to keep the performance of the truck both on and offroad, lightweight and sacrifice some comfort (aka, for most people, my friends included - "my wife will not like it" or "it's too much to handle for the wife"). You want the comfort at camp (full built interior, creature comforts, etc) then sacrifice performance both on and offroad (aka, me when I went up to Alaska and Arctic Ocean and did Dempster and Dalton in mud... enjoyed the day time when driving and passing everyone with a van, a Tune/ Lone Peak/ slide in doing 20MPH through million potholes while I skipped through all that doing 60-70, hated it when setting up when the truck's covered in mud)

Ha I knew when I posted about my camper you’d say the GFC is the perfect camper.

If I were running fast in the desert, I’d probably get a GFC too. But deserts are rare in the Southeast, and if I get to make one trip out west a year, I’m lucky.

But there is no “perfect camper” for everyone, as people have different styles, priorities, etc.

“There are no solutions, only trade offs.”
 
Grocery mat
Yeah, pretty much. I like mine. Have a speedy in bed liner underneath if I ever need to haul dirt/rocks or anything . Take the 2 minutes to pull the BedRug out haul wash out bed, and spend anothrr 2 minutes putting it back in.
