So, I decided to sell my RV and bought a pull behind travel trailer. My idea was to buy a small cheap trailer or fifth wheel for the twice a year that we go to the river.
Well.........lol my wife being the person she is, wanted big and newer. We ended up with a year old 32 foot bumper pull and it’s been all downhill from there.
My truck doesn’t like pulling it! I just brought it back to Vegas this morning from Utah where I store it and I could not keep this truck cool enough on any little hill. One hill I hit 240 and it’s not even hot as heck here yet.
I wrote in a thread a couple weeks ago, “let’s talk fan clutch.” I’m currently running with the fan clutch locked on, newer motor craft water pump, new motorcraft thermostat and a brand new spectra radiator that I installed last week.
We’re leaving for havasu Thursday and it’s supposed to be 110 degrees. I see no way that this thing will make it. I just ordered a champion 3 row this morning in hopes that it will cool better. Between watching pyros, temp gauges and crappy fuel mileage, I’m half tempted to go out and buy myself a newer gasser.
My fuel is not set too high and my timing is pretty dead on.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks
