I am using a F250 to pull my new 3400RL. My pin weight does exceed the trucks capacity. With the economy the way it is I did not feel comfortable doing both truck and trailer this year. Plus I am just not ready to give up my 7.3l. Jury is still out on the new 6.4l (at least for me). I did add air bags. Kicking myself for not doing is sooner. Makes a big difference in ride and the truck is no longer squatting. I am also adding a Banks exhaust brake. It will be installed next week.
Rick,
That's another reason I'm hanging on to my F-250. I love the 7.3L. I also have the Banks Exhaust Brake. You'll like it. There are others who have the PacBrake who swear by it, but to each his own. At the same time I had the Exhaust brake installed, I had the Banks Power Pack installed. Made a great difference in power and get-up and go. A side effect of the Power Pack was an increase of 2 mpg.
