Well I don't tow a lot of heavy loads, but I'm usually the one who gets the phone call when one of my cousin's toy's needs hauling!:D

Here's his 78-F250 I hauled to our local mud run because this truck has no breaks but run's like a scalded ape!

I also haul my playtoy.

My cousin also has a 92 F-250 Non-Turbo 7.2(I believe :confused:) that I had to haul when the radiator crapped out while I was driving it! :mad: (shoulda got a picture, but he had taken my truck to get work done that I didn't have time to get done) Also I just recently hauled his old Jeep J-10 to get looked at and I have to go get it for him Sunday because its something really bad! I'll make sure and get a pic this time!:D

436b cat backhoe, 4wheel drive, extendahoe. Total gross wt. with me in truck 33,000 lb. Pulls it good,but I don't get in any hurry. Tandem duel 28 ft. trailer with electric over hyd. brakes. Stops fairly decent. Also pull bobcats with all atachments and gross around 23000 lb. on a triple axle 24 ft. trailer.This trailer also has elect. over hyd. brakes with two axles with disk brakes.Brakes are the trick on heavy loads!

I tow our 10,400 lb 5th wheel. Not quite up to the 13,400 lb tow rating but if it were any heavier I would want a HO Cummins. Does a fine job and maintains 65-70 quite well. Long rolling hills slow us to about 58mph where it holds strongest in O/D. A HO would likely flatten those rolling hills out!

Hi Eric, It's listed @ 27' but it's closer to 29'+. Weighs in @ appx 9000# loaded and ready to roll! :D

I don't pull anything but my fat butt around 'cause I don't have to anymore. I sold two single car trailers and bought a 2 car stacker (one on top of the other) that I pull with a FL60. Trailer loaded weighs between 18,000 and 20,000 depending on which cars are in there. Then the trailer is 14' tall and has a nasty aerodynamic load.
