Me to
They do still make em, just very pricey
Southern RV in GA has bigfoot
Trucksandrvs has the cheapest Truck campers
Love your positive energy. May luck bless you!
You just can't go wrong getting a Bigfoot, nice rig.👍👍👍
Yes! Thanks a ton!
Very nice,seems like old campers have more storage than the new ones
...and they're built better too!
Great Walk Through of your camper.
I love that camper! I have a 2500hd Silverado long box crew cab as well. Perfect camper..
Thanks for posting. I have been so curious about these Bigfoot fiberglass campers.
I have a 2001 2500C10.6E on a 2007 RAM 3500 dually and love it. The storage is terrific and you have shown me a couple of ideas that I might incorporate. The only quibble about your walk-thru is that the bed is NOT a full queen, but an RV queen. If you are under 6'2" you won't really notice. Once you hit that height, though, you become the same length as the bed. It is the only feature of the Northern Lites series that I prefer, but have learned to curl when I sleep. I travelled solo across Canada for 30,000 km in 2014 in a 9.6 (biggest difference is wet bath vs dry bath) and am thrilled with the ease of using the toile compared to the smaller unit.
Good tour, Kale & Marinn!
Thanks Gramma!
Thanks for the video. This is what i need for my 97 10.5 bigfoot.
Nice setup. I hope the two of you are still enjoying the truck camper life. I have the same truck, except I have the Dmax. If you haven’t checked or already replaced your brake lines, please do. It’s a common problem with these GM’s. I had mine blow out on me at 75 mph. Fortunately the truck that crossed into my lane went back over into his. Limped it 10.5 miles home using the transmission and emergency brake.
Be safe and God bless.
Nice people :) nice overview the camper)
Always a pleasure , love the setup, keep the very well put together videos coming!! You should do a cooking episode , I really liked the breakfast cook when you went boarding!!
Heck yes! Cooking video soon to come.
You guys seem like a pretty cool couple!
Really nice camper!!! Great walk through. Although yall didn't mention the very large amount of counter space which if course is unusual for a truck camper. Have fun guys!!!
Its so big from the inside!!! Wow thats real Tardis xD
Cheers from Ukraine ;)
The decoy bike is on the front...lol can’t believe you guys got two bikes behind the seats
I'm a 2 year full timer now and I found that a pizza pan over the oven flame just under your oven rack helps balance out the heat helps from burning the baking lol
Very nice home
Big foot would have been my second choice, I really love my Lance. Nice rig ya’ll got.
Thanks man!
This is probably the nicest truck bed camper I've seen yet! And of course the way everything is described as beautiful and wonderful and nice!
I had a 2500 10.6e, selling it is one of my greatest blunders. They are such awesome campers IF you have the right truck.
Just purchased a Bigfoot 2510.6.
It is on a 1995 Ford F350 Dually with timbrens. If I want to upgrade the truck, do I need to stick with a dually in your opinion?
@@bigfoot2328 Hi Mark. Yes is the short answer. I added air bags and heavy leafs, adjustable shocks, and still just did not enjoy the excessive amount of roll. 19" wheels with the heavy ply tires ( with the shorter sidewalls) might have helped, but a dually would 100% be the way I would go next time. Those are fantastic campers, congratulations.
@@bigfoot2328 And! Take a look at "Runaway Roses" for some good discussions.
bikes and motocycles!!!!! you guys are awesome and we need to be friends ASAP!
Heck yes! Let's meet up sometime!
Thanks for sharing your super awesome camper, guys! I love the large kitchen counter and all the storage space! Do you mind sharing how much you paid for it?
Very nice set up love your bathroom only thing you didn’t say was how much water you carry. Good luck safe travels
that looked like a pickle ball on the kitchen table, love playing pickle ball
It was! Heck yeah!
Very nice. New sub. Wish yall the best :)
Sweet! Thanks a ton!
Awesome
Wow, we are so jealous of all the storage you have available to you! The storage in our truck camper is tiny compared to yours. My question is what is the payload capacity of your truck and what is the total dry weight of the camper? I worry that the truck you have will not be able to handle the weight of the camper plus 500+ pounds of your personal cargo for the long term. My wife and I love your spirit and sense of adventure. Thanks for sharing the tour of your camper. :)
Great question! We are actually releasing a video on that soon. The camper weighs 2500 lbs. wet, and the truck's payload is 3500 pounds. I know we are pushing it with all of our extra stuff, however, I like having a 2500 rather than a 3500 for driving around when the camper is off.
The only down fall on the whole set up is that the truck is not rated to haul that much of a payload. Bigfoot recommends a 1 ton dualy for that camper. After 12 years of travels in ours we broke down this week and ordered a new f-350 dualy and a new bigfoot 10-4
Agreed, way over payload by prob 800-1200lbs
Bagus banget penataan camper van nya
Can you change a flat tire with the rig on? I know this may be a stupid question, but I always worried about loosing control with a flat tire with all that weight.
How hard is it to take it on and off? Thinking about getting one so I can take my boat with me. Do RV parks let you take them off the truck?
BEAUTIFUL TRUCK CAMPER! ALL FIBERGLASS, THE ONLY WAY TO GO! WAS PLANNING TO BUY A NEW/NEWER VAN BUT AFTER VIEWING SOME OF THESE TRUCK CAMPERS, IT MAKES MORE SENSE AS TRUCKS ARE MORE RELIABLE. DOES THE BIGFOOT OFFER PASS THROUGH WINDOW TO THE PASSANGER COPARTMENT? (SECURITY IS IMPORTANT TO ME.)
I have to say I love her voice and I think that it would sound very good if she did some voiceover work for some cartoon characters
Check out the water management sites in Florida it's free camping but it boondocking , a few of them has showers 🚿 with bathrooms . It's all free .
Hi Guys and gals Love the camper Also hope y'all are well Listen I have a Question for y'all do you use No Expiration date coupon's for your shopping
Hey man! Thanks for supporting our channel! We use coupons of literally every sort. Why?
@@SMITHINIT The Coupons are great just need to get a pull trailer to haul your grocery stock around while your out in the out back
How much did you pay for the rig and how do you change a tire when flat
Beautiful and tons of storage 💞. How heavy does this one weight and what is gas mileage with tiny house on the truck? This is my dream camper. Better layout than the Lance
Hey! You awesome kids still travelling in that Bigfoot? I bought another one.
Any chance you have a make on the magnet you use for your phones? I would love to use the idea in my Lance!
Try Nite Ize
How heavy is your motorcycle?
that was really cool, nice set up,lots of storage, and i like the dry bath, also what kind of motorcycle. you must mean scooter
BIGFOOT OR NORTHERN LITE WHICH ONE IS BEST.?
How much would it cost to buy a rig like that
Is that Washington county?
Would you have a picture of your batteries hooked up? We have the same camper, husband took out batteries for winter. Now go to install and have. Three wires to attach (red, white, black). For the life of him he cannot remember how they were attached. Lest you think he is an idiot, he is an avionics electrical expert. But the third wire stumped him. He normally takes pictures.
Hey there! Shoot me your email address and I will send you a photo!
Hey.....Your hat's on backwards
That looks like a lot of weight for that truck.
I wish I could get a Bigfoot Camper. But they don’t have enough head room
I hear ya there. We are shorties!
I'm 6'1, I had plenty even with the ac unit.
@@SMITHINIT the 2500 séries have a lot of room , on the 1500 séries the roof is lower
That's way bigger inside than expected, especially the bathroom. How much would a used trucker camper like this cost?
I just picked up a 1998 for 15,000. They are very hard to find. I’ve been looking for 12 months or more
@@bigfoot2328 I want one
and of course "JESUS" YES....
Wrong truck to hold that camper GM vehicles cause nothing but headaches get a Ford or Toyota
The astonishing fired briefly bang because internet undoubtedly attempt modulo a wild dredger. calm, obscene cart
