Depends on what you want but for me a slide out is important cause you will want that extra room. You can go bigger but then you certainly will want a bigger truck. We also like to use state parks. If you go much bigger than it gets harder to fit in some spots. Let alone drop a ramp. Some set lower than others which will effect the angle of the ramp. Lots of thing to consider.

Just want something that will haul a Harley and a scooter or trail bike out of the salt belt in winter and serve as a base camp.
