Had a young fellow who spent that $20 to decorate his Dodge like that several times when he would to go home he would find them stuffed in his fuel fill door. Took him awhile to realize that his truck was “Getting it’s nuts cut off and shoved down its throat”.

If it's not any higher than the 2017 F250, then I'm good. I'm still breaking it in before I tow the fifth wheel. We'll see.

"What was used on the paint to get that shine?"
And what color is it?

What is this trucks allowable cargo weight (from the same often requested door sticker)? and what hitch did you ultimately add?


Another stupid question, but what's the price of diesel in N. Cal? Last month my LA area sister sent me pics of her gas running at over $4/ gal - while I'm at $2.41 (locally maybe $2.80 for diesel).

As previously mentioned - that magnetic paint job sure shines up nice!
I believe (with your 16K+ load) you made the correct choice in a tow vehicle - and hitch. Other than color (Blue Jeans - and year) it's very similar to what I have (and pull).

Locally diesel runs $2.80 - $3.00 gal.; pulling at 8/9 MPG it quickly adds up.
Don't forget to post your additional adventure pics.
