I think this is a good idea OP. Seems every answer on this forum ends with get a 3/4 Ton. Gets really really old.
I walked that road and I am very glad to be back in my Half Ton coming from a one ton LB CC Dually.
I have a F150 with the 8.8 rear axle. I’ve about got it set up for towing a smaller TT the way I like it.
Have you thought about getting a finned differential Cover? I’ve thought about it but I am not sure if it actually helps that much. They are cheap enough for sure. One big thing I like is the fact that you can buy the diff covers with a tap that you can install a temp sending unit. Something I would very much like to have.
I do think investing in a good OBD2 monitoring system such as the Edge System is prudent.
Thanks!
