Keep an eye out for a F450, them are sweet trucks, might be able to find one somebody can't afford [img][/img]</end quote></div>

Not enough power to weight.

 

Thinking about going to Cle Elum area for the fourth this year to visit some friends which bought a new cabin up there this past year. So does anyone know of any legal riding areas besides Easton that I have read about on here? They are located near Ronald if that helps?

Are you referring to the 6.4 engine not being powerful enough?

5TH wheel towing - 24,500 lbs
CVWR - 14,500 lbs
GCWR - 33,000 lbs
Governed at 325 hp @ 3000 rpm and 600 lbs.-ft. or torque @ 2000 rpm on F-450 with 6-speed manual or on F-450 with automatic transmission and 4.88 rear axle

I test drove one, very nice rig [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

 

I am saying you get a small truck engine in a mid class truck. A freightliner comes with a little cat, thta is rated for more power. You will pay 15k or more, for said truck, but way worth it, IMO.

On a side note I will have my fifth wheel in the new truck on Thursday. I will be hooking to the "Full Throttle" and going for a test pull. I can't wait to mash on that Alliso, to see what is has got.

 

from tahuya last weekend

before the ride


during the ride


after the ride

 

Will probably go back with Michael on Father's day weekend. Probably take a different trail than the overland though. It was brutal.

 

Am going to look at a King Ranch later this week - its a good price, so I'll see if anything seems to be wrong with it. I'm not in a huge hurry
