not bad for a small town guy regurds joe
The supercab/camper combo is probably one of the coolest things for the 73-79 lineup. Did you make sure no one was sleeping in the camper before you took off?
You may all remember that I also had a really big (11.6') 4,000 lb camper on Burt for years and I ended up with the spare on the front also. There was no noticeable change in the temps with it on.
Joe, .. Congratulations on the trophy again! I LOVE your trucks and must say I am a bit partial to the SC. My first Ford truck was a 74 F350SC with a Lance camper on it. Many, many years ago, but oh the great memories!
