Make sure you get the camper certification with the camper package. 2wd is
fine, but consider dual rear wheels.  You need an F250 or equivalent.
V10 is hot.......  Don't forget tow package and factory hitch.  For what you
will spend, you can have a fine class C.

Milo, I have a question, not related to this subject but a discussion
with some one else. How old do you have to be in Australia to get a
drivers license and how old before you can vote.

Back to your subject, I think I would get the 4wd for a truck camper.
They can be gangley as hell some times off the hard surface. The dual
wheel is also good to have for the load.

18 years.  Re driving 16 years and 9 months will get you a Learners
Permit.  Then usually 6 months minimum later
you can do a driving test for a provisional licence.  Three years later
you get a full licence.

Wish they would make it 18 here in the USA.  It varies from state to
state but in AZ I believe its 15 for learners permit and 16 to get a
license.  Nasty bad accidents involving teens outranks the 2nd worst
group, seniors.

At this time in life all that
remains is left overs, some can
be cherished as good others bad,
but the only definite is that they
are all that remains, main course is
over.
