Wow, it's quietville on this thread. Where is everyone? I think I hear crickets...

Well, I de-winterized the 5th wheel tonight. I plan on going camping next weekend. I took it for a test spin tonight with the new F-350. I couldn't even tell it was behind me. The bad thing is, I forgot to put the TV on the floor...it took a spill off the counter.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img]

The trailer brake is much different than my old truck...I can't figure out what the auxillary switches are for?.?.?

You probably have the Tow Command integrated brake controller. The switches next to it are upfitter switches so they probably don't go to anything. They are there in case you add extra stuff that you need switches for. Then it all matches instead of carving into that pretty dash.

The Tow Command is supposed to completely rock over any brake controller. Completely integrated with the ABS so it will pulse the trailer if the ABS kicks in as well. RTFM!

Oh yeah and that sucks on the TV. Means you need one of them fancy LCD jobs now.

We are all shy...especially around you. I personally feel intimidated by your beauty and charm.

Hello Fellow Quaders

I just purchased an 06 PSD, any quirks I should be aware of, or special needs in the Break In period? This is my first Diesel.

Be very weary of Permanent SEG. It's not harmful or fatal however.
