Is that a toy hauler? If so, what model is it? What have you done to your truck to help with towing?


Yes it's a 28' Toyhauler and all I have done is make a couple adjustments to the weight distributing hitch, and I drive with my rear water tank full, tows like an absolute dream

I don't always go camping in big sur ca for Memorial Day weekend, but when I do I camp next to the dumb Europeans who don't know shit! Pun intended

These dipshits were literally the last camping spot on a row of 30. I woke up early to dump and I was noticing water coming out of the dump pipe next to me overflowing with shit, so I took a stroll to see what the hell was the hold up. Then I saw this.

I'm about to put 2000 miles of towing on the raptor. WA to far side of MT and back next month. Made the trip last year and it was pleasant driving, even with a 14' cargo trailer. Made the trip several time with my old non-turbo diesel and hated it. Long pull out of Butte MT and you couldn't see the cars behind me for the smoke!! and that was at 45-50 mph. The Raptor just cruises up that grade (yeah, it does use a "little" fuel doing it)!!

I have a small 5'x8' V-Nose enclosed trailer that I normally use to haul my track bike. This year it has done dc->chi->dc->chi fully loaded with moving stuff, it has electric breaks on it (due to previous tow vehicle) and there might as well be nothing there even when its completely full (~3klbs).
