Greetings all,

Long time camper and always in a tent but my wife and I are ready take the next step to a Solitude 310GK. As the proverbial saying goes "don't put the cart before the horse", I am currently looking to trade my F150 Lariat for an F250 6.7L 8-Cylinder Diesel. This should handle the load but I'm getting mixed advice on bed size? Would a 6'9" bed w/ a sliding hitch work or should I look for an 8' bed? Any advice would be much appreciated!

Thanks,
