I'm planning to get Icon suspension but dont know what stage. I use my truck for daily driving and camping. I plan to do some exploring/expedition every month. I already searched the forum but i did not get a clear answer. Any suggestions will be appriciated.

Stage 2. Use it for about what you're talking about. Only went for it because it was on a group buy. Can't recall the pricing but I think it may have been similar to the black friday deals Total Automotive Performance is offering now. Also because buy once cry once. I love it so far and am glad I sprung for it.
 
I purchased stage 2 during black Friday from Total Automotive Performance. I have not received it yet but cant wait to install it.:banana:
 
I have stage 2 with stage 5 fronts with the external reservoirs. Not going to lie, I got the fronts simply for looks. Stage 2 is perfectly fine for wheeling. External reservoirs are good if you do a lot of long high speed desert runs which I don't plan on doing.

a few pics. youll still get the same amount of articulation with a stage 2 extended vs other stages.

How often will you be going camping? If your planning to carry a lot of weight constantly/regularly, I would go with the expedition rear coils. This will help prevent with the sag when loaded down with gear(camping,off-road etc....). I would also go with the remote resi in the rear as well.

I say stage 2 extended travel(fronts) with what I mentioned above.
If not carrying much weight regularly in the back or roof, I would say stage 2 with remote resi in the rear with the provided rear coils.
If you do see that you need the expedition coils later on in the future, the 2" lift coils can be sold pretty easy on here so you can upgrade to the expedition coils.

I'm running stage 2 (extended travel fronts)with expedition rear coils and the 2.0 shocks. Soon to upgrade with rear remote resi.
 
Just got a good deal for an Icon Stage 2 with overland springs [MENTION=120150]TotalAutomotiveLV[/MENTION]. Shout out to Chas! Thanks for the excellent customer service!
 
Stage 5 in the front. It's my daily driver and I use it a good amount on dirt roads, some in the mountains and some rock crawling. It works great on washboards. Stage 5 is the highest Icon goes for the 3rd gens.

Are you still using sway bars with this much flex? Asking because I bought a stage 2 and that's a good bit of flex!

I have kdss so my sway bars are def still on. That might be another reason I have a little more flex/droop without long travel. Here's another pic.
