A quick pic from last weekend helping my aunt move... Guess that's what ya get being the one in the family with the big truck :D Towed the load about 50 miles at 70 mph no sweat, EGT's at about 850 on flat ground and about 1150 on the hills on my 100hp tune. Not too bad for not having an IC yet :fustrate: Transmission hardly broke 160*

Yeah... Drove about 180 miles that day with the trailer hooked up. I told my aunt I take payments in cash and/or beer :D

In all reality it probably wasn't that heavy, probably only would have crossed the scales at like 13 or 14k GCVW. Heaviest I've towed since I bought it though, and I was happy with how she did!

Was that the big load of rocks I saw the pic of over on the org?

Rocks? it was dirt. The trailer is a 10K trailer, and It was overloaded by a good bit because it would NOT dump.

7K for the truck, 10-12K for the trailer lol

Yeah ive towed a 4klb trailer, 10klb excavator, and my truck is close to 8k alone.

So 22k gross and that was with stage 1s, stock tranny, no IC, stock turbo....


I love that combination for towing, other than the stock transmission

We used to gross around 18-20k+ day in and day out with our old F-250 OBS, mosty stock with TW tunes. Still not sure how the stock trans lasted a hard 200k miles, but Ford was glad when we sold the truck. We killed 2, almost 3 re-mans in less than 40k miles. :D


And i know how ya feel Paul. I haven't really driven my truck since mid July, i've moved it and made some short runs, but i haven't even started it in 3 weeks. I just need SEMA to hurry up and get here so Nate can build my trans.
