Curious about this from an enforcement standpoint, not safety. Safety is always a priority.
For those who are just over 10k GVWR (most anyone with a camper), do you chain up when the sign says so? Ever been stopped, weighed, cited, imprisoned, tortured, beaten?
Bottom line, is being a few thousand lbs over tantamount to driving a few mph over the limit in the eyes of the law?
I will be carrying chains regardless, just prefer to keep on truckin vs beating up an already fully loaded tire with chains. Autosocks are a consideration, but I'm not sure they'd be an improvement over studded Nokians (stud police reminder: dedicated ski vehicle).

Where are you located? Enforcement will vary by state. If you cause a wreck though the popo and lawyers may look into it, unless you’re wealthy though my guess is the latter won’t bother you.
In Co they pretty much never require chains on private vehicles, just commercial.

That’s a great interior layout. Going through a toll both solo would suck.

Anyone have a recommendation for a portable CO2 detector suitable for a van?

I bought a battery CO one from Lowes, but first thing I see in the instructions is shouldn't be used in a damp environment, < 40 degrees, < 20 feet from heat source, so that's 3 strikes for my Vanagon :-).

Yeah, I went this route over a van because I can take it off and have a normal truck when I need it, though I've ended up using it almost every weekend I've had it and never taking it off. I take a 2-3 MPG mileage hit with it, and it drives a bit more like a boat, but airbags helped level it back out and made for a pretty smooth ride. The storm wasn't bad at all, I put up reflectix around the vinyl siding and in the windows, then kept it from 50 to 60F inside at night. Moisture is an issue if you don't crack a vent and will freeze between the vinyl and the reflectix. Would a van or hard side camper be better for this type of camping? Absolutely, you will probably use less propane throughout the night and have more living space. But I'm stoked on this setup, the price was relatively cheap for a 4x4 camping setup and I still have a normal truck when I need it.
EDIT: Also, protip to get around sno park's "Do not build campfires on paved areas.": This little firepit stainless steel mesh works great. It catches all the ash and collapses down to just the size of a couple tent poles. It's sturdy enough to make a log cabin style fire out of normal firewood size pieces:Last edited by McScrundle; 12-05-2018 at 01:36 PM.

Beat me to the same question. I'm looking at the very same set-up; both for skiing and for summers at the race track. And to keep the truck viable as a truck when the camper isn't in the back of the truck.
