Superduty pulling 45K

Here is a link to a
of a guy pulling what he says is around 45K counting trailer. With truck, that would be over 53K combined. Says he is pulling a 12% grade when it stalls out. Don't understand his reasoning on keeping truck below 2000 RPM, says to keep tranny cool. He does freak out when it hits 105 C, around 220 F, saying it is burning up. Video is hard to watch with his antics, but if true, these trucks are definitely built tough.

This guy is a clown a danger to everybody on the road. And I'm mad that he comes from Canada. Glad he is on a coast I'm not. This guy needs his licence pulled

Not impressed. An electric F150 can pull a million pounds.

Check out the rest of this guys videos. He is often very overloaded and a danger to others on the road. At the very least his videos prove that you can tow WAY more than the trucks are rated for. He should have at least got an f450 if he's going to do that....

I've watched quite a few of his videos, as they pop up in my recommendations, including that one a few days ago. The guy doesn't need to be in the line of work he is in....

This guy's videos are way too long and rambling . But I kind of like seeing what not to do with your truck, unless you have tons of money to burn lol.

I found it funny when he was freaking out when the tranny temps were barely over 200f... he does have a lot of "what not to do" kinda videos

That guy is a tool

FWIW's my Max weight was 58K driving thru a Hurricane Micheal

My avg load load is 45-48k. Just replaced my front brakes at 125K, rear brakes at 80K.

Yes, this trucks are derated and I laugh every time someone says they are pulling a heavy load with a 10-20K trailer.
