If the only limiting factor is the gear ratio and you're not looking to upgrade your truck, I think swapping gears is a reasonable thing to do, depending on the cost.
I don't know as much about modern vehicles, but with older trucks, swapping gears on domestic vehicles was a bigger job. I think you need to remove the entire rear
axle. On Toyotas it's much more simple. I put different gears in my old Toyota and it took me about 4 hours. It was my first time doing that kind of job and had I done again it would probably only be 2 or 3 hours at the most.
But if you still need to remove the entire
axle housing on a Chevy, and especially if you aren't doing the work yourself...I'd have a hard time believing you're looking at any less than $1,000. Don't quote me on that though...
I'll be interested to hear what you do.
I'm jealous of your camper! Bigfoot 5th wheel seems like a really great camper. Just like mine except with a devoted, out-of-the-way bed with no added length to the trailer.
