    Saw one of these in the lot the last time the wife and I stopped by a Ford dealership to window shop. Bad a$$. Congrats.

    Not sure @Ianjoub where you get this info. Doing it with an f150 with max tow package which will do 12,500 with a weight distribution hitch I would agree with you but an f250 with max tow package, Diesel engine, upgraded suspension and exhaust brakes is very capable to tow 12,000 (that set up is rated at 20,000) so you are only at 60% capacity which is very safe IMO

    I have just seen too many bad things happen. There is no margin for safety in that setup. I personally would not tow anything over 10k without a dually and would prefer that on a gooseneck to a tag along.

    I guess I should add, knock on wood, I have not had a towing mishap yet.

    So you're saying I should get an F-350 Tremor. :D

    Yes! Am starting to see a goodly number of Tremor outfitted 250s around DFW. Losing their cachet IMO! [emoji2] Go bigger GP!

    Well I’m only towing a surf boat so not sure how a 5th wheel Set up would work with the trailer. I’ve talked to few of the engineers at ford and other manufacturers and one thing to think about is the newer f250 are more tow capable that the one tons that were pulling these type of weights just a few years ago So I’m not sure your concern is warranted with the newer models? Happy to report back after I’ve done a few trips.

    Nice daily with the C4S. How tall is that ceiling and which model lift? I've been looking at a similar setup.

    Thank you!
    @tomc - I have 47k on the odometer. I love your color combination, and that you have enjoyed your car.
    @stoked_7 I have 10' ceiling, and have the Bendpak HD-9 four post lift.

    Agreed. Red is great on Ford trucks! [emoji2]

    @RCorsa - congrats on the Super Baja! I've only seen two Shelby trucks in the wild around here, never a Super Baja. Enjoy in the best of health...T
