Geezus H --- that trailer is freaking huge! Thats like towing a house around with you.
Basically is! Now you see why I have the mods I have lol. I have bags and an additional leaf in the rear too. In the picture above, everything is aired down so it looks like it’s sagging but on level ground everything sits pretty. It tows really comfortably and I’m happy with it. But yeah, I’m pulling a little more weight than most 😂 42’ trailer length. 4250A527-18DF-44E4-88EE-B8EAC0142B67.jpeg

Nice what’s the weight on that voltage? Mines 38’ overall and coming in about 14-15k. I’ve got 2000 miles on my setup towing the 5th wheel and absolutely love it. My first 5th wheel and love how they pull compared to bumper pulls.

Empty trailer weight is 15K. It's 3200 on the pin fully loaded. I've got about 10K miles with this rig on various cross country trips and the latest to coos Oregon and back has been by far the best with all the recent build changes.

Just a day or so ago on IG Adam said he's about to start putting an 8.3L Cummins in an FL truck. So I assume he's still hauling or about to be again. I can't remember if he posted it on here or not but he did end up losing his father a while back.

That’s awesome. Big dog Forsure. Someday I’ll upgrade lol. What you running for tires? Saluns g rated 110psi?
My raptor only has 15” wheels. I had a blowout first trip with it. They were date stamped 2013 carlises. My fault should have checked that right away.
Ended up going with good year endurance. They are the best tire I could get for 15” wheels. If I have issues with these I’ll probably step up to 16” wheels and g rated tires.

Good to hear he is still at it, sucks to hear about his father. That's a tough one.

Today I hooked up the flatbed and loaded up an Expedition and headed out to do some logging. The truck ran like shit the last time we took the 5th wheel out, so I made some loops up some decent climbs on the edge of town. Anyways I digress lol.

Well I don’t know. The last trip the truck was still down on power and would go into stage 1 limp climbing hills. And it was random. Fuel quantity would be limited to 55mm3 and then just come out of limp and accelerate again. Even on flat ground with a head wind it was down shifting into 4th. It would do it on my daily driver tune and the stock tune. The intake on the truck sucks for sure but I was thinking it was a MAF problem. I cleaned it and checked some limiters and of course changed those too lol. The truck seemed to run ok this last time. I have an S&B intake on the way on back order. I didn’t see really anything wrong in the log either. I am getting a p0101 code so I’m still thinking it’s a MAF problem.
