At the time the Lance 830 was on the horizon. We went a different direction. Your 830 looks great.

Very nice rig .
Is it just the picture, or is that camper door extra skinny?

Yeah, it's a little tight, but functional.

Scott,
Very nice. I hope to pick up our new 830 at the end of the month. A new Lance owner. Well not really, we actually owned a Lance squire roughly 12 years ago. A few motorhomes later a pop up and back to a Lance. My wife always loved that first Lance.
I hope mine looks as good on my truck as yours does.
Congratulations.

Hey Scott....
I noticed you have both the Timbrens and Supersprings... Wondering what you think of the combo? Are you over on your GVWR? Not going to slam you, I am just curious. I like that camper a lot.

Honestly, I don't know how I can't be over. Listed dry weight (2540 lbs) is more than my "payload" capacity. But, I have no sway and it really drives quite well. I just put a little pre-load on the Supersprings (because they made noise when empty) and went with the Timbrens for a Dodge 3500 (8600 lb model) because they are a little longer than the 2500 model and engage sooner.
