Your Tow Rig

[Shran]

This is mine... 85 F250 HD, 460, 4 speed, 4x4. Kind of a rusty old junker with a lot of weird issues but it always gets the job done. I have a set of EFI heads and all the fuel injection stuff from a newer truck so I will be installing that someday. I got a class V receiver hitch for it and the heaviest load I have pulled so far was about 1000lbs of firewood in the truck and a 20' car trailer with a Lincoln Mark VII junker that weighted 2900lbs. The truck did NOT like pulling all that at all.

My awesome "tow" rig as of late. You can't hear them, but the p-metrics were screaming.

Without a doubt. I bought the F150 to tow my Jeep to the Rubicon back in July and then sell it when I got back. I was without a tow rig at the time and needed something quick. I got a good deal and knew I wouldn't get hurt on it. I'll have it for sale in a week or so after I get it detailed and it will be replaced by a diesel of some sort. For the most part the F150 does what I ask of it, it's just down on power for all the mountain passes out here and really drinks the fuel when loaded because your screaming the engine to keep speed. When I towed my Jeep to the 'con the last 80 miles or so is a steady climb for the valley floor all the way up to Lake Tahoe (about 8000'). I fueled up at the bottom and burnt 2/3 of tank by the time I pulled into the staging area. It was in second gear at 3600-3700rpms for the better part of an hour and a half, mileage worked out to just a hair over 7mpg
