Haha, my old Cummins powered battlewagon ran train uphill on a Duramax truck that was smoking like a train, and my trailer was bigger than his!

The Ford, aye, the Ford didn't even show up to play.

I only understood about 10% of that post......

And the part you didn't know was that the Ford had already gone up and down the hill towing a car hauler full of RAM 2500 trucks. He was already unloading them at the RAM repair shop by the time you made it to the top of the hill....

Apparently the RAMs he was hauling had towing mirror malfunctions, as they were all extended as if they were towing something.... Hope they got fixed. Saw it wit me own eyes.

What you saw was the result of a bet, the loser had to give piggyback victory laps to the Rams.

But unfortunately RAM lost the race and had to be towed back to the dealership.....

Now I've got the RV back from the dealer, the new team seem to look pretty good together.

I had a gasser, did fine pulling my travel trailer. But when I upgraded to a FW, it could barely make it up a hill. 6.7 for my vote!

Cedar Creek looks great with a Ford towing it. In fact a Ford looks great towing any RV! IMHO only.

I pull a 355qbq with a 05 F-250 6.0 the trailer is a little heavy for the truck so I added air bags in the back which helped out a lot. I get through the 6% grades no problem just slow but all in all a good truck would like a bigger one just for a better pace of mind
