Wink New to Ford

Hi Everyone,
First time ford owner. After being a long time Ram Truck owner I decided to give Ford a try. Just purchased a 2015 Ford F350 Fx4 Lariat SRW, with all the goodies. Drove it home from the dealer Saturday night and it drove smooth for a heavy duty truck. Already having a issue with the Transmission, hearing a clunk when put into drive from park and the Backup Camera comes on. Ford Roadside assistance is going to pick it up and deliver to the dealer for repair. I hope it is a minor issue. So far I love it. I bought it to tow a 41 ft. fiver.
Regards,

Hello,
No not yet. Still has the plastic wrap on the fifth wheel hitch. Plan on taking a trip as soon as I get it back from the dealer. I'm anxious to hook it up and see how well this truck tows.
Regards,

Just wanted to leave a quick note, today I hooked up the fiver to my new truck and towed it up and down local hills. Let me say I was very impressed with the power of this truck. Also I was afraid I would need air bags to keep it from sagging. No worries dropped about an inch sits level when connected. One more word "Awesome".
