We just sold ours (had it for 5-6 years) and had basically nothing but good things to say about it. We had two St Bernards and the tent room was theirs and our son slept on the dinette. Hauled great and went everywhere we wanted in our Sierra 3500 with nothing but Torklift StableLoads. What's...

Re camper jack width. Yep, our outfitter is very tight but so is the space between the wheel wells where the base sits so you can't be off by all that much anyway. You get used to it after a few loads/unloads. The wood base is made with marine grade plywood. Ours still looks basically brand...

If the tie downs are locked then they wouldn't be able to get the camper off the truck. Regardless, it's far more likely they'd just steal the truck with camper on it. I like to leave the jacks on because I use them to stabilize it. Wind can really shake the camper, as do our dogs walking around...

To add a differing opinion, we have an Outfitter Juno, so not identical but pretty similar camper. We've been out single digits several times, with a wind chill well in to the negative teens. We always travel with water tanks full and have never had an issue. We're able to keep the camper around...

Hah I was worried about that but I'm 6'2" and haven't racked my head just yet. I'm impressed with the handling as is. We had airbags from our last hard side camper but I ended up deflating them to 8lbs and just using the upper stable loads. I've been very happy with it.

Still loving it. We had it out a fair amount during the winter and it did great down to about 0* with a 30mph wind. Winds aren't really noticeable and there's no flapping whatsoever of the soft wall. We were able to easily keep it about 65 degrees throughout the night. I put up reflectix beside...

Depends what you call comfortable. My wife wouldn't call putting the furnace on its lowest setting and using a sleeping bag comfortable. We have an outfitter that has awesome insulation for a pop-up. Even in the teens we can keep the camper at 65ish without it running more than 20min every hour...

I had liberty mutual and they told me the same thing. I was covered to $40k for the camper, auto while on truck and home owners when off. After a year I called to confirm coverage and after speaking with several people and hearing several different opinions of what my actual coverage was a...

We have upper stable loads and airbags. Had the airbags first and weren't thrilled with them, then we had a few leaks and decided to have the stableloads as a fail-safe. They make for a much softer ride than airbags with 30+ psi. Instead of a harsh jarring with the air the springs feel like they...

I left verizon for project fi in November and have no regrets. We live in Colorado and have camped in CO, UT, AZ, NV and CA with it. I have 3g more than 4g when off the beaten path but I can almost always pick up at least 1x for just voice calls and SMS. I wouldn't hesitate to switch. My only...

I drove up a bumpy washboard road that averages 25 degrees and tops out at 30 with a 3500 lb hardside camper in the back of my gmc 3500. Took it very slow and kept a steady foot on the accelerator. I wouldn't want to go any steeper that's for damn sure. Can't say I would even care to do it again...

If your primary concerns are noise and warmth I wouldn't worry about the warmth. We came from a very well insulated hard side to an Outfitter and I was shocked at how warm it stayed. We haven't been out in below zero with the pop-up yet but in the 20s and upper teens the softwall was still not...

Phew. 20% is a big jump. $7500 increase on the cuchara. That could be tough pill to swallow. New base price at almost $45,000. Edit to add. That will make it $14,000 more than the Outfitter Apex 9.5 which is probably their main competition.

I was too. I'll weigh again once I get a bunch of the unnecessaries off of it. Our payload is 4200lbs and it handled great on and off road. Much better than expected given the weight.

I've got a duramax and always try to fill up at the pump. Much cheaper, less messy and easier. If I remember right most of the stations had peak blue at the pump. I've never had an issue but I've only got 12k on the truck.

we just blow it out with an air compressor. i feel like the antifreeze taste always lingers a little. just get something like this, hook it up to your city water open one faucet at a time and blow it out, then open the water heater and blow it out. i just put antifreeze in the p-traps.

posted quite a few in the "hallmark and others" thread - http://www.wanderthewest.com/forum/topic/11918-new-outfitter-juno-10/

if the app needs to make calls, send texts and store things on your usb those things would all be required. if it doesn't make calls then these things would be unacceptable to me. if you're looking for offline navigation google maps has it. you can download an area on your phone ahead of time...

great looking rig. have fun!

Got a late start heading up on Friday and we were turned back by a snow drift before our destination. First nights stopping spot. The next day I decided to bust through the snow since I had plenty of daylight to dig out :) Had to do a little digging. Almost couldn't open my driver's side...

yea, when we're all loaded i'm thinking we're going to be pushing gvw but as long as the tires are below their max load that's my primary concern. like i said i want to ditch some of the excess stuff and see what it comes in at. it is heavier than i was hoping. they put a 13.5k btu AC on the top...

Bob said a base model juno should weigh around 2300 dry and I'd say that's probably accurate. There's a lot of heavy extras on here.

The way it was optioned it was 3000lb dry. Between that steel spare tire rack, A/C, extra cabinet, 3 solar panels, Yakima rack, etc. Once I have it set up how I want I'll get it weighed again and get a wet weight one of these days. I've got a payload of 4200 so I'll be alright but it's heavier...
