There are a few granite trucks running around that have had the 6.0's beat to chit....

My foot was on the brake or ontop of the gass on the floor in those trucks...

Hell, I think my Dad is harder on his pickups than I have ever been.. IF he brakes them , he pays for the parts, and I get to fix them, If I brake them, I pay for the parts, and I fix them.... So you can see why I'm not hard on his stuff.... Mine on the other hand...

I blame it on design flaws

"of course the rear tires wear out quicker than the fronts, Ford designed 'em stupid!"

works everytime :flipoff2:

on my work truck, I usually go through two-three sets of "drive" tires for every set of "steer" tires.

Yep, you could say that. When I drop it onto the hitch on the back of my wheeler, its hard to turn if I use too much gas cuz the front tires are so light..

Handles it very well.. All 3 axles on the trailer have brakes on it, so it stops nice. It runs down the hwy at 70-80 without issues. and when we had my wheeler on the trailer, along with my Dads Bronco, and a bunch of tools, aircompresser, and camping stuff it was over 32,000 pounds total. It is really suprising how well it pulls. That is a 40ft main deck, so you have to take corners in town WIDE..
