I just bought this yesterday
http://aluminum-trailer-company.ebiz...izAutos&pid=15
First time towing with the new F350PSD.....
The truck rides better loaded w weight than unloaded by far
no more bouncing either.
I noticed the 6.0 likes to drop in gear on hills quite a bit
while Im crusin at 75...I am assuming its the stroke of the motor
being slightly too small maybe?...We managed about 12.5 MPG
while towing the empty trailer which I think weighs around 7000 lbs
and will come in around 12K lbs loaded up with car and goods.
Handling was great,didnt even know the thing was back there.
Time for a tow chip and 100 gallon gas tank now
peace

Not quite on the same scale as the rest of you, but then my lil' Ranger is a bit smaller than what you are pulling with, too...
I picked up a new bed for my buddy's Model A truck last week, had to borrow a trailer because I couldn't manage to come up with the correct number (2) of tires and rims for mine.

Here's the Jeep i picked up last week. A little time, and it runs and drives for $155! Couldn't get a trailer, so we were able to get a dolly for free. Work with what I can get my hands on for now, until I find a bigger trailer.

See my avatar or gallery... About 24-25k GCW which varies based on how much fuel and water are in the boat.
