i dont think it would have gotten out had that happened... E350 moving truck caused some of them.. stupid open diff... tractor caused the deeper ones there right in front of the porch pushing it out since they didnt leave tow hooks on the front of the moving truck..
the criss crossing dually tracks there were made by my SD after we had to transfer the load from the moving truck into mine to get it to the front porch lol... it was sinking too in the soft yard but in 4x4 it handled it like a champ... |

50' of John Deere with my dad's 12 KR and a buddy's 41' of Trails West Burandt trailer and a '14 Platinum with 6 Pro RMKs and 5 of us westward bound to West Yellowstone. I just picked up a '16 F250 Platinum to replace my '13 Ecoboost Platinum, but have yet to hook onto anything.

Nice looking 6.7's J10.
Here's a few pushing the limit just like you! http://i106.photobucket.com/albums/m...psbmxrty2a.jpg http://i106.photobucket.com/albums/m...psrhc02sbn.jpg Trailer was designed to be towed behind a side by side :-X04. And here's dad's truck with his new cab over. We went to Idaho and picked that up from a friend of my grandpa's. http://i106.photobucket.com/albums/m...psvohedfey.jpg http://i106.photobucket.com/albums/m...psvohedfey.jpg |
903,000 miles down
I was using it to pull new trailers from manufacturers out to dealers around the country. Rufus, as a family member named him still has original 7.3 and transfer case, but both axles and on 3rd transmission.

Here's a few pushing the limit just like you! The 6.7 handles that 41' trailer ridiculously well. The driver has a lead foot and it never seems like we drive slower than 85. Even at those speeds the pickup with get around 8 mpg. |
Javracer, that's incredible. What a testament to the longevity of the 7.3.

I just showed my friends who questioned my judgement on getting the same truck... They all just shut up after seeing the milage.
That's some inspiration there to find my next truck to be a 7.3!!!! |
They don't all go that way unfortunately. My 550 is on its second motor and only has just over 200k. Bad luck or the previous owner just abused it. I'll never know but I'd be happy to get 1/2 the miles out of it still that Javaracer has got.

You are correct on that but one can hope! :-huh |
From early December..................A VERY full trailer of ash firewood. Gross was 17,600, trailer axles were close to 8k. I love this trailer!
