Thumbs up Break in Tow

Have been following the break in procedure as described by many on this form.Was told to do a break in tow.By the way ..O4,cc,long bed, Fx4.2000 miles. My neighbor has an 8000lb trailer that he was taking to a near by camp.He has an 02,cc,4x4 dually,7.3..So I ask him if we could tow it up with my truck.He was driving and all he kept saying was that he could not believe the power and it felt like nothing was behind us.All I could do is smile.He said I guess you will be getting a lot of tickets.He just came back from a 2500 mile trip and e said I wish I would of had your tuck.This was from a 7.3 owner of many years. This truck rocks!!
