Oh...ok got it...yeah a little slow on the uptake. Emailed off a few shots to the calendar link for what it's worth.

14,300lbs with a dry camper. Just a hair over my GVWR, but tires and wheels are rated for 3500lbs each. Stable loads to engage the upper and lower overloads make it surprisingly stable.
I've since replaced the 2.5" front coil spacer for a 1.5" to get it sitting perfect when loaded.

A travel trailer would be far more cost effective, but I'm almost always towing the car or truck when I have the camper on.

I like everything I see there... HA! Nice setup!!! Moving up to a dually is on the list to ease my feelings with our 5er.

Can I ask how the heck that giant truck camper handles going down the road? Seems so tall and wind prone.

It actually handles well. I didn't even run an equalization hitch on the previous setup. Just air bags in the rear and Torklift upper stabloads to engage the upper overload earlier.
To support the new camper I added lower stabloads that engage the lower overload spring. (They're incredibly effective)
On the new camper I use a 36" hitch extension that requires an equalization hitch to pull over 6500lbs.

Stock hitch vs the Torklift hitch that supports a dual 2" receiver extension.

Testing the receiver for length.
