Your towing rigs and trailers

I hated the Peterbilt at first. I wanted the shorter hood/wheelbase 384 for CA length restrictions so I was stuck with the Paccar MX-13 engine. What a slow dog that thing is! Then I had someone tweak the ECM tuning, and oh what a difference!

Reason I ask is Peterbilt was a California Institution that started less than a mile from my home.

Several of my friends would only buy Peterbilt but the last go around to say they were disappointed would be an understatement... mostly performance wise... they have Bobtail set up for fuel oil delivery...

Not my trailer but a uhaul. Had to haul our 2004 f150 yesterday and used our 2007 but couldn't have the trailer back in time so had to pay today's fee for it and needed to haul a truck to the scrap yard
My brother had got called to work after school so i had 800lb in the bed of the pickup towing too. But the scrap yard was only 10miles away and it handled good still

Not going anywhere like that I hope!
No tractor hold down chains, and hoe should be resting (chained) on the deck.
Just playing in the driveway when I brought trailer home.

Just the normal Ford squat. They finally fixed this on the 2017's.
