Ok, I'm very new to this! We bought our trailer a couple of weeks ago, we did the walk-through last week, and I just bought the truck.
F-350 Crew cab, 7.30 Diesel long bed. Now I need to buy a hitch.


Michael,

We're born at the hip! I bought a 3255 and a Crew Cab 7.3 PSD. We haven't even towed it yet. My concerns were as yours. After a huge amount of fussing, I got a Husky hitch, (more or less equivalent to a Reese) and I have ordered an "Air Ride " hitch from Oklahoma (for lotsa bucks). They are adaptable to Reese or Husky, and greatly reduce frame shock to the trailer.

Anecdotal and engineering opinions indicate that the cost of this addition are more than saved by the reduced wear and tear on the truck and unit.
