With every good tow rig...there has to be a good mechanic. She was trained early to swap injectors and prime a VP44 truck.
This is the tow rig I miss the most.

Had a 2007 F350 XLT SuperCab 4x4 DRW 6.0L and it was good with our TT and Harleys:
Then we bought a 5er and it worked noticeably harder:
So we traded it in for a 2011 F350 Lariat CrewCab 4x4 DWR 6.7L and it tows FANTASTIC! :

Tim....love those 2500HDs!!!! You should shell out $167 for a set of these mirrors and you'd be one "happy camper". I ran across these on sale this week (what a deal) and ordered a set for my son to put on his 1500. I already have a set on my HD. Seriously, they would make your towing life so much easier.

Thanks for the info. I actually have a set of add ons for the factory mirrors and when I left the dealer I forgot to put them on. Didn't take long to figure that mistake out! I stopped to put them on when I took the pic.
I drive my truck everyday around town and in some tight places and I like the mirrors I have just for that reason.
Thanks for the posting the link with the info though!

I have a reason now to quite complaining about backing mine 250' up my driveway!

It's heaven for sure! I didn't mentioned that it is also 7% grade downhill and 7% uphill......going one way. 4wd and diesel comes in handy!

I was just about to comment earlier that it looks like you need 4 wheel drive all the way and be careful not to fall off the hill. If you were in NC we'd say that "you are a backin fool"! Love the pick Scarfoot...and the rig.
