upgrading/upsizing campers but he's put so much into this one, I'm not sure if he actually will or not. If so, we may go with something of the F-250 size. We've appreciated the extra room the truck has, and yes, we
do carry a generator. Steve bought one last year that runs either on

Consider the newly revamped Nissan Frontier also. The major
differences between the Foo-Rod F150 and F250 are in the suspension
and the ride
height ---- the 250 will ride much rougher due to its stiffer springs
(much stiffer). It will also need a longer ladder to get into the cab.
I looked at a '22 Frontier at my local dealer the other day. It's a
bit bulkier than the model you have but not overly so. And the
standard six cylinder engine has 310 horsepower with 281 pound-feet of torque. And a payload rating of 1,610 pounds with a tow rating of
6,720 pounds. Also
trailer sway control comes standard.
I'm at a stage of life where I choose my vehicles for ease of entry
and exit. I think I'll look around for a used Frontier extended cab. I don't really need the power punch of the new guy. And I'll not be
towing any
crampers. I just need to haul the occasional thing that's not a fit
for the capacious trunk on my Beemer. And the Danger Ranger is getting
a bit "long in the tooth".
