[RC] 9 1/2 foot camper question - Ridecamp GuestPlease Reply to: Donna Shrader bshrader@xxxxxxxxxxxxx or ridecamp@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ========================================== My trailer is 14 foot long and, like yours, has a hugh dressing area in front and the back tack area.I love it and wouldnt part with it either. Our truck is same as yours, only a diesel. We have a 91/2 foot truck camper and have hauled all over the USA and crossed the Rockies many times. We never had a power problem or swaying. You will need a hitch extension and weight distribution hitch with stabilizer bars. A reliable horse trailer and or RV dealer can fix you up with that. You will need to be more careful about backing up. If you jackknife, you can hit the trailer with the 9 1/2 foot camper pretty easy. With an 81/2 or 8 foot camper you would not need the hitch extension and can maneuver it a little more easily. We have had both sizes of campers. The 8 or 81/2 foot camper is pretty tight living quarters even just for 2 people but is fine for a weekend. We like the extra roominess of the 91/2 foot, especially on longer trips. Good Luck.
