F550 thoughts?
Thinking about a F550 chassis motorhome with the 6.7 diesel. I will need to tow around 6k lbs and will go over Raton and/or Monarch Pass frequently. Thoughts on power? Ride quality? Fuel econo...

Does it require an air brakes endorsement to drive?
The chassis numbers for GVWR and GCWR will tell the tale on that.
LOL. It’s a pickup truck chassis, they have never made one with air brakes, and there is only one F550 chassis so there is only one GVWR and GCWR number, no options.
We have several of those chassis (albeit with flatbeds or dry van bodies) and with a cheap plug in tuner they are a very spirited drivetrain, even with a pretty big load on. Even empty they have a very civilized ride. The older one a have here as a farm truck has a *far* nicer ride than my cousins Dodge 350 does.
