Well you're in luck they now make travel trailers for the f-150 that are true 5th wheel. Because, let's face it. With the max tow package 11,300 lbs is a hell of a big camper

rest easy knowing that the guy it the hummer was getting 15 mpg at best big engine +big tires +full time 4x4 =12 mpg average
the upside renting from uhaul is, sometimes you get an old truck with so many dents dings gouges and scratches, you can damage it as much as you want. Nobody can prove when it was done. I once snagged a crappy 90's monte carlo on the side of my moving van, dragged it about 50 feet across the parking lot before I could…
what do you expect a big giant box with a six liter engine and a four speed transmission with the drag Co efficient of a house that probably weighed close to 6 tons to get?
you can still buy the bumper to bumper warranty, online from a Chrysler dealer or at a dealer. Also applies to used cars under a certain age and mileage. Costs $2300 online from a dealer in Florida or the local dealers try to sell it for $5000
but yet is rated to hold 950lbs in the bed
trucks that can tug 200,000+ are a whole different breed all together, fascinating to watch
the expected time between rebuilds is rated at 500k versus 750k in the ram. Now that they all have competent exhaust brakes someone needs to bring one out with dual range rear ends for even better fuel economy and effectively doubling the amount of gears.
the top spec f 450 which is just a mini semi truck in disguise with 19.5 inch Alcoa semi truck wheels and tires and mono beam front axle and 4.30 final ratio is legitimately rated to tow 31,500 and that's with four doors and seating for five with an eight foot bed and dual rear axles. It's essentially a class 7 truck…
my apologies
maybe it's testing a 4 cylinder diesel engine....
Sure it could, but could it be run 24/7 for a million miles in five years between rebuilds? Doubt that, and I'm a ford man.
A 1/2 can easily tow what their old dually can
the wheelie bars would have to be standard
frame damage?? If it can tow 11k It will just fine, built it trailer brakes sway control anti lock brakes and traction control are all standard on the heavy duty 1/2. Same as on a 3/4 that rides rougher costs much more. Example oil change is is 15quarts in the diesel engine versus 5-6 the 1/2 to say nothing of the…
I suspect that is an under estimate, these aren't nearly as heavy as you think, also the wind over yonder Prarie where our wandering jewelry travels blows west to east nearly constantly. It's like drafting without anyone in front of you. Also older Chrysler dodge jeep Fargo Desoto are known for wildly inaccurate gas…
They are so desperate to find replacements for all the truckers retiring that you can shit on your bosses bunk and still get a job. My dad has 37 years in and 3.5 million+ accident free miles before he walked away, due to an electrical fire In the back of the cab
grew up in an rv family, there was only one rule, no number 2 ever in the rv,ever
best things about a late 80's jeep cherokee? Triangle vent Windows and the ballsack vent under the steering wheel blasting icy cold global warming right on to the ol yam bag.
this is what us work truck owners have known for years, it's mechanically perfect but it's got dents dings scrapes and scratches and even some drywall mud and house paint on it in some places. But the best thing is the giant ass solid steel bumpers mounted front and back, idiots will take heed when you move about…
