Towing thread...pictures

Went to the ouichita mountains last weekend. 8-9% grades towing 8,000lbs.

Was so fun and easy thought I'd share,...









Beautiful colors...

Unfortunately now that I have the new truck to tow with, the trailer has to wait! Had it all picked out (Open Range 335bhs), but it was one of the other.

Remember, I tow this with my 6.7. Just to be correct and not getting chewed out for being to far off topic.
