Now this is a great idea. So obvious too. Why didn't I think of that.A bicycle tube slipped in between the truck and camper, then inflated may do the trick.

I had the FWC boot that fits between the camper and the truck. It ruined the paint job on both. The grit that collects there will sand away the paint. I threw it away.
That is good to know. Thanks for sharing.

Yup, me too. I don't know if it was the grit or the opposing movement of the cab and bed when driving in the woods. I don't know if the boot was an FWC product or not but the result was the same.
Old, bum around in Ford and an even older FWC Grandby

Yes the boot is a bad idea if you care at all about your paint.
A better solution would be the roof vent in combination with a cracked window or the floor access tie down doors open.
Better yet, a Fantastic Fan especially if your away from your vehicle.
The best solution, of course, is a crew cab truck so the hounds can help you drive.

Sorry I don't know if I have any pix of the boys inside the camper. But here is one outside. The one on the left weighs 105 and is 3 years old. The one on the right weighs 70 and is 12. They are both unneutered, male Chesapeake Bay Retrievers and they love duck hunting.Joanie,
