It sounds like you are very happy with the setup. What was your fuel economy with the trailer?
I didn't reset it for the trip, but when not towing, I average 19.5 mpg on the freeway at 77mph on an 1,800 miles trip, with a heavy foot while passing.
I was pretty pleased with how it worked out . I read how the HDPP trucks tows its rating well, and this truck didn't disappoint.
I believe those Goodyear Endurance played a part in the trailer not moving around, because when the installer and I were comparing them side by side, the GY's sidewalls were more than twice as stiff than those China bombs. I could actually compress the China bombs a little with one hand, but couldn't budge the GY.
The China bombs had some extremely soft sidewalls, and it was such a shock to me, and I'm relieved I took them off.
The GY were heavier also.
