PUG, thank you very much for taking the time to reply to my post. It sounds like the 3/4 ton truck did the job even if you were overweight. Unlike your expertise, I am relatively new to the diesel world. I bought my truck 3 years ago and have been reading up on duramax's for quite some time...

newbie/ncrebel8, Thank you for the input. I know it doesn't seem like much, but the opinions are greatly appreciated. Thanks again, Bill

I believe in the duallies you could only get the 3.73 axle ratio. I could be wrong, but I thought that is what I read awhile ago.

I have an 02 silverado 3500 CC/LB Dually with the duramax/allison combo. I was wondering if I can tow the Cyclone 3850. Here are the cyclone 3850 specs: Dry Weight13969lbs (6336 kg)GVWR18000lbs (8165 kg)Cargo CapacityN/AHitch Weight2871lbs (1302 kg) I believe the 5th wheel weight can be...

Thanks for the link. I gave them a call but they dont have long-term rates. The lady was nice, but she said there is a maximum of a 2 week stay. I thought it was a little odd, but nonetheless it isnt going to work...hmm do you have any other suggestions? There is the "Take It Easy"...

Rockerga thank you ver much!! When I read this post and how htNeighbors winterized his Cyclone it eased the worry of how are we going to survive through the winter. Thanks again for the thread!

HappyKayakers, we have camped out in a truck camper in the winter and it wasnt too bad. But you know as well as I do a truck camper is SMALL:eek: compared to a 40ft Toyhauler haha. I do appreciate your input and the "winter" idea has come to mind a few times worrying about it. Maybe I will...

Dave we are thinkin of the campground near Freeland, MD...just across the PA border. I think its called Morris Meadows Farm or something like that. Living in PA it does get pretty cold and I would assume its the same in MD. The hard part in MD is trying to find a long-term site with a decent...

truknutt, thanks for the welcome. We've been looking at the Cyclone for quite some time now and are definitely interested. We are just trying to find the big differences between the 3850 & 3950 models. I messages HTNeighbors and he already got back to me about his Cyclone and boy he loves...

Big red, thanks for the tips. I posted under "FULLTIMERS" a few questions and a few people suggested a few posts for fulltiming in the winter. Thanks for the help though. The styrofoam sheets seem to be a big hit on here.

Don, we agree with you. We feel this might be a great idea. Can I ask you how do you work at the campgrounds? My wife would be interested in this while I will be at the office. any suggestions? As for meeting people, for the most part, you cant beat campers. The majority of them are very...

Ron thanks for your input. With myself, my wife and a tank full of fuel my dually weighs a whopping 8000lbs haha. very heavy truck. My truck has a class 5 sticker in PA. The GVW of my truck is 11400 which you are correct. The class 5 in PA goes from 11001-13000 GVW so maybe I can up the GVW...

Hey Everyone, My wife and I (newly weds) are thinking about fulltiming. We are only 25 years old and currently we live in PA. I've been working for a Defense contractor for 3 years now and their may be an opportunity to work in Baltimore, MD for a few years. This post is going to be fairly...

I have an 02 Duramax LB7...the famous injector problem truck...and she loves to run with a little Diesel Klean (grey bottle at wally world). She doesn't like anything else. It run a lot quieter and seems to get a little better mileage. I have read where guys add 2-stroke oil to their fuel...

Jim, Thanks for the response and warming welcome to the forum. From reading a few posts there is a wealth of information on here and I'm sure I will learn a lot. Thanks for the info on one of your members, hopefully i can get some info from him. Bill
