Factory suspension. The trailer was empty in that picture as we had just hooked on to it at the RV dealership. The empty trailer weight was 11,300 lb. It doesn't drop much more when it is loaded. I just put on a set of pressurized shocks (Bilsteins) and I see it had picked up the truck a bit from what it was before I installed them.

diesel to gas

Recently while on a long trip our 2006 6.0 diesel's trubo took a dump. We had it in the shop a few times before. New turbos cost a lost of money by the way. So now we are not feeling so good about the 6.0 and are looking for a 2012 XLT SC with the 6.2 gas engine. Our 5th wheel is 9000+ empty. This 6.2 forum is a real big help. I wasn't sure if the new truck would haul our trailer. So far it has been pretty hard to find the truck we want on a lot anywhere but we will keep looking. Might end up with a 2013.
