Picked up on Thursday, excellent experience at Thoroughbred Ford in KC MO! Went to Berckmans Place (IYKYK) at the Masters for the practice round Wednesday, flew from ATL to KC on Thursday. Absolutely love the truck, 1800 miles home to SoCal with a detour to Northern Utah to pickup my trailer, a couple Marriott nights and a couple camping nights (in the trailer) Virg1n River Rec Area in AZ is incredible!! Perfect weather all week, sun shining 60’s and 70’s in every state.
Have several trips planned for summer and fall! Baja, Sequoia, Yosemite, Big Sur, Tahoe.
Tows very well, the trailer is 24’ x 8’ @ 5k LBS wet, its quite tall for its size as its lifted from factory on MT's. Using a Fastway E2 10k lb WD hitch, need a little more adjustment on height & preload and I’ll have it dialed in. A little bit of porpoising over patterned bumps, otherwise feels super solid, doesn't budge in the wind.
Got mid 8 mpg towing, tons of hills, passes and valleys averaging in the low 60MPH range faster down hills, sometimes slower up them. Its what I expected, but hoped for a bit more.
