If you've ever considered a slide-in camper cabin for your truck, you know it can be a dicey endeavor. Between finding one that fits your truck bed, making the requisite adjustments to get it situated, and then eventually figuring out where you can and can't go with it, it can be a real challenge to find the cabin that works for you. Well, fear not fellow outdoorsmen, because with the upcoming 2017 Ford Super Duty, Ford has taken the guesswork out of which camper cabins you can use and the answer is simple: nearly any of them.
This week, Ford allowed us a brief glimpse inside their Arizona Proving Grounds for a most unique performance test. Outfitted with a 7,500-pound superstructure designed to simulate a fully loaded truck bed camper cabin, the 2017 Super Duty took to a unique obstacle course. Featuring fast-paced slaloms, sudden lane changes, and emergency stopping procedures performed by a professional driver, the Super Duty was able to stay the course, and keep its payload in place, despite a massive shift in the truck's center of gravity.
It is for this reason, among others, that Ford can confidently claim that this Super Duty is the toughest, smartest, most capable vehicle of the Super Duty line…ever! So if you'd like to know more about this capable, camper-hauling truck, visit us at Robin Ford today!
