According to Google
https://www.cars.com/research/ford-f...0/specs/11196/
Payload is 1639lbs so just scraping under it dry with 1537.
Maybe with some HD leaf springs it could go, but probably just try and find something around the 1250lbs if possible.

There is another 500lbs of stuff to add to dry weight of the camper.
Yeah, you can call your local spring shop for info and prices. The work I'm having done is about $550(parts and labor), the shop I'm using is connected w FWC so I'm pretty certain I'll be safe w whatever they've recommended. Plus mine is a pop-up so the center of gravity is lower than a hardside which reduces sway and is better in crosswinds.

I've gotten a crazy number of responses already - I listed it on Craigslist and Facebook Marketplace two hours ago. I expect it'll be sold by Tuesday.

Link was gone by the time I clicked. How much was asking if you don't mind sharing?

This is pretty sick. If it was taller inside that would really make it amazing I would think.

I think this FB link will still work. Details and photos, which admittedly, I took to make it look as good as I could.

Anyone know anything about these? Model says Bigfoot C9.5 DLX.

Something seems a little off to me on the dry weight at 1135lbs / 534 Kgs. Seems ultra light for a 9.5 foot

That does seem off. My 8.5 northern lite is 1200lbs with less in it

I've seen 2 with the same sticker now.
At first I assumed it was 1135kgs, but the math checks out on 534 1135 converted.
I just can't really find any info out there on them

Yeah all their 1500 series which is their lightest weight ones are north of 1500lbs so I was kinda shocked.

Just speculating, but I wonder if they pulled the weight off the camper's tag, but confused the dry weight with the camper's capacity. Which would mean that camper can hold 1135lbs worth of stuff, which seems about right.
But yeah, a quick google search puts those campers in the ~2300 lb ballpark (dry). Do-able on some 3/4 tons. Definitely would be happier on a 1 ton.

I think the sticker says Camper mass with standard equipment, and possibly is just totally out to lunch?
Both the guys I talk to assure me it is fine for a 1/2 ton though they both have on long box 1 ton. I think I've given up on finding camper with shower etc that will fit on the 1/2. its either buy a new truck or a smaller camper now

I looked and looked for another vehicle but I just hit the road like this. 4 people for the first month, then two people for the second month. Rides a bit low when loaded. Money saved on sprinter/truck will be spent on more frequent motels and burritos.
One bike already stolen while pumping gas in broad daylight. Cable lock cut. I just spent money on a few kryptonite cables and master locks for the remaining bike. My son and I take turns riding, which sucks because riding together was such a joy ass he is finally able to keep up. If the prices ever come down and I get a van or truck, bikes/skis will go inside. It's a pain with the roof basket because I don't like leaving gear in there over night so I pull it down and chuck it in the back seat if I stay at a friend's or a motel.
Consider that when choosing a vehicle: gear inside. I have to say it confuses me when I see a high dollar high roof lifted 4*4 sprinter with the $$ bike on a hitch rack. Just showing off?
I have a longer highway leg coming up and will try to take apart my bike and jam it in the roof box.
I also sleep in this in the winter. Next vehicle I want to be able to sit up inside in the back.
Happy trails this summer!Last edited by jhyatt; 07-02-2021 at 04:30 AM.

I am going to be hitting refresh on this thread all day, watching for WRG posts. My closing is today in a few hours, and I know he is chomping at the bit to get his commission $$$$. I’m happy for him, dude is a real professional who made me a shitload of money. I look forward to seeing him post up some nice pics of whatever he buys.
