it should fit on any 16 foot utility trailer or on one of those uhaul full car haulers

Track width is ~ 65" depending on tires/rims. The width of the body is about 74" excluding mirrors.

Don't you have a tape measure? :)

My guess is that the truck isn't where he is and he needs to tow it home.

Yeah, but it's more fun to ask smartass questions and pad my post count. :-X24

I tried to trailer a 1988 Bronco with 31 inch tires and factory aluminum wheels and the Broncos tires were too wide for the U haul tandem axle trailer. If the Bron had 235/75 x 15 tires-I think that it would have fit on the trailer.

I tried this back in 1998. It is possible that the U haul trailers are now different.

The best bet would be to actually measure the width of the outside sidewalls of the F150 and actually measure the width of the trailer-before moving day.
