Like you Terri - My Truck also has a 5 1/2 foot bed (it's a 2008 Toyota Crew Max Tundra that I haul my horse trailer) but if you do the research, a Hawk can fit on it. The pics that Stan from FWC has posted show Tundra Crew Max trucks with their tailgate still on hauling them. I've also seen...

Hi Terri- I live in the Santa Ynez Valley and have been considering either a full Hawk or a Hawk Shell for my 2008 Toyota Tundra. I'm kinda swamped this weekend, but would like to see your Hawk in person and see if it would be good for my uses. I wish you the best in your truck shopping and...

Here's the strange one.....I just realized that this www.gowesty.com is located only a few miles from where I live.

That looks like a great way to keep the couch and have a handy table to eat a snack on, set your adult beverage down or use a laptop on. Jeff

Rich, Congrats on the new Tundra. That is a big step up from the T100. I think you will really enjoy the ease in which the truck handles the camper. The hardest thing to get used to is parking the beast. In answer to your question, I have not used the towing button. Since the Tundra has a...

Hi Ted - Thanks for posting a pic of your new truck. I have a 2008 Tundra Crew Max (4X4 and 5.7L Engine) and still trying to figure out a way to fit a Hawk on to it and possibly haul my horse trailer too. With the Hawk on yours (I believe a 6 foot bed) how does it feel? Which engine do you have...

I'm not going to ignite the Windows vs Mac vs Linux debate, but I'm a Mac user and wanted to share my back up routine. At my office, I have a USB hard drive that does back ups hourly via the Apple program Time Machine. At home I have a fire wire hard drive that uses a program called Super Duper...

Just reposting to say we finally figured it out. Apparently, the key to removing the shower hose is humbling yourself and asking for advice! Within a few minutes of posting my question, I figured out how to remove it. Prior to that, we had spent an hour or so trying to get it removed. If...

I was reading the thread about the history of the extended bed and had a thought: Would FWC or ATC users ever prefer an extended bed in a North-South configuration versus an East-West and not have any overhang into the general area of the camper? Of the pop-up campers I've seen on the market...

Sun Man - I envy you in every way. Here you find a spot only hours away from where I live and show it's beauty. Note to self: "Must Work Harder to Get Good Off Road Camper for 2008 Crew Cab Toyota Tundra"

Thanks Barko for the thoughts. My Boss's F550 has been interesting and that's another story. My 1/2 ton is a 2008 Toyota Tundra Crew Max, so I'm pretty limited. However I've been still having a great time getting out to the outdoors with the Hay Burners. Today is a great example -70 degrees, no...

My horse trailer encloses two $hay$ $Eating$ $Monster$ we ride regularly. So when it's full it's about 5,000 lbs. Although I really need to confirm that number at the scales since the trailer can be grossed at 7,000. My personal wish is to put super springs, get E-rated tires, and a sway bar on...

Hi Brandon - I think you and I are in the same boat when it comes shopping around. I don't have a camper, travel trailer or rv yet, but really want to spend some quality time in the outdoors with my family. I have a 1/2 ton truck and currently use it to haul a horse trailer and would love to...

Jon - Thanks for sharing. I sent your link to my dad who has been under the weather recently and he immediately e-mailed me back thanking me and said your pics where awesome! Jeff

I thought I'd quickly share this - I'm the perennial tire kicker in TCs or RVs. Right now I'm working hard to get things in order to either buy a trailer or a TC. So far I really like what the current crop of FWCs and ATCs can do for me. Tonight EDO had me over and showed me his unit and really...

I was driving between offices today and on the 101 I saw a pretty new Ford F-250 towing a very nice looking Airstream with what looks like an FWC Shell on it.

I love the pics. Thanks for sharing. Especially love the pic of the Arrogant Bastard Ale on the table. My favorite!

Hi Jason and Rectx - Thanks for bringing up your questions and bringing out the responses. I'd like to have an FWC, but with a wife and daughter they want some form of civility when it comes down to just hot days/nights. Unlike you two, I don't fight humidity but do fight temps into the lower...

Truck and Horse Trailer Here's a pic of the truck and trailer out:

Horse Trailer and Hawk? Wow Norm - I think we could share some thoughts! I have two Quarter Horses ($hay eating monsters) that my 12 year old daughter, wife and myself ride regularly. However like yourself, we really only have weekends to play and with my set up, I'd just like some more...

Horse Trailer and Hawk? Norm - Thanks for sharing all the info about the Hawk you have. I don't have a 3/4 ton like you do (2008 Toyota Crew Cab) but investigating a Hawk and would like to also haul my horse trailer (2 horse Slant load/Aluminum Exiss/CTK 20). Have you hauled with your Hawk and...
