I'm about to put my slide in camper on my c1500 auto. It's a small unit without a the cab over, not sure on the weight yet. Was wondering how important it is to keep it out of over drive? I think it will really chew up the gas driving at higher speeds. I could see it for more city stop and go situations. What do you guys think, anything else i should worry about?

For a truck camper, under 1500 lbs or so, I dont think I would worry about not using overdrive. You will likely feel a bit more sway due to it being a bit more top heavy. How far does it stick up?
