Okay, I have towed with the new truck several times for stretches of 150 to 250 miles. There was one stretch the first day of towing where it was really bumpy if I got above about 62 mph. However, the past two days I have hit 67 and it was smooth, so it must have been that stretch of road the first day.

I absolutely LOVE this truck. I am getting anywhere from 9.5 to 10.5 mpg which is totally acceptable to me. It is the same range of mileage I got with the F350 I traded in. This is a much stronger truck than the Ford. I literally do not know the trailer is behind me.

I have enclosed a pict of the truck hooked up to the fifth wheel. Now the wife says we need some red on the trailer. Yeah right, like that's going to happen. ha
