Me and my megar f150 towing a 3000lb trailer AND 900lbs of cargo in the bed from Mass to Florida.

This should be fun. Thank god I had the airlift suspension put in

 

Well, good luck, and stay out of overdrive!

So far I keep hearing good things about towing with this truck, so try and have fun with it and keep us posted.

 

You'll make it easy. Buck made it crom CA to IL ...Across the Rockies baby..

 

you got your truck bagged? or like air assist?

 

Hey, like the man said, i maid it from San Diego county, to knox county Ill, with the bed full, and 6500# on the hitch. Yes, i was told that "i was crazy, and good luck on that trip buddy ", but you know what? the trip was 2100 miles, and i made it in just under 50 hours... The mountions were fun, i say fun because you have to be smart with your shifting, i only got into 2nd gear one time, and that was to go around a big rig, because he was going way slow, and if i didnt pass, i may not of made it up that hill....i was in 4th most of the trip, butonce i got to illinois, i was i 5th....its just so flat there i wasnt worried........although, i must say, reverse is not a good thing, i killed the truck twice backing my truck and trailer into my car port.


drive safe..

 

lol, jeez...so much weight it dies when you put it in reverse. Did you ever have trouble puttin it in first?

 

malbojah,

where are you dude? i'm dying to knwo if you have the air ride helper bags in the rear to assist when hauling, or if you actually have the 'hit tha switches' air bags?

It's like he posted "i'm gonna tow", got in his truck, and dag gummit, up and went towin'!

 

I think that you will be OK alot of that trip is made in flat ground. Just go easy and the F-150 will treat you right.

 

Hey guys just got my internet and cable hooked up (tech is just left). As for the trip, once I was above 60, then I used overdrive with no problems. And I have some Air-Lift air bags on the rear suspension to help out with the large load I was bringing.
