What a great resource for newbies. My wife and I just bought a 2005 F350 SRW diesel 4x4 crew cab. We are going to buy a cab over soon to live in while we build our home. We are currently looking at Northern lite and Bigfoot. I like the idea of slide outs but have been warned about the extra weight since I do not have DRW. Any advice would be much appreciated. Any ideas on the need for air bags and Rancho 9000's would also be welcome. I want as big a camper as possible (since we will be living in it for a year or so) without exceeding the limits of my truck. Thanks for the help in advance. -Chris
