    I think Cooper may have a bad incident sooner or later and be done with it. He's just way way out of his wheel house. Glad he put in the fire suppression system. Good timing.

    TLDR....
    fill up gas tank, take truck to scales and weigh. take the GVWR shown on the door panel minus the dead weight of the truck to get your max payload.
    go home, load up camper (preferably fully loaded with all food, water, LP, etc) and head back to scales for a re-weigh. then pray the that difference between the two scale readings is within your payload

    can pick you up, but you got to get across the line, might need to hoof it thru the bush; otherwise the proper procedures are still closed, both directions (though exceptions are made for a few local communities that rely on cross border between AK & Canada, for access to shared schools and food runs).

    Considering your logistical connections Rob, is there not an option for a C-5 / C-17/ or even C-130 delivery from Bangor to Malmstrom? Essential civilian support? National Guard exercise? just throwing ideas out there.

    its complicated....
    while i was still shopping and trying to figure out what i wanted i made a spreadsheet with all sorts of specs on campers. thought my head was going to explode if I had to crunch one more number. so i bought a truck i liked and hoped for the best :notsure:

    You may need to personally supervise the transfer with an escort for the critical infrastructure.

    Well, the "Chuck Box" almost got chucked into the garbage, but I think I saved it. I'm a welder/fabricator, not "The new Yankee Workshop".....ahahahahahaha.
    More tomorrow.....maybe.
