Fixed my GVW problem
In a previous thread I asked about what appeared to be an overweight problem between our Kodiak RB279SL and our Ford F150. The tongue weight is about 950 lbs and the payload for the truck is 1,250 lbs...

Seattle Lion,
Congrats on your new ride!!! I didn't notice, is it SRW's or DRW's and what cab/bed?
We did the jump from a 2500 Suburban to our F350 SRW, CC, SB, V10 gasser in 2007. It pulls and hauls all I need to and that is with a 1,600# loaded TW and stuff in the bed.
Before gas/fuels went nuts, DW would drive it to the store and liked it. Lots of get up and go... and she had no problem putting her foot in it... The only down side the truck has is, she has a drinking problem...
We only use it for hauling now, what ever that is now. (camper, flat deck, lumber yard runs...)In a few years when ever gas & fuel finally figure out what they will be selling for, we might trade then. Have no need to now. For us, we had to work to find this gasser but it was the right truck for us. May go oil burner next time around. By then the 800 ft lb of torque yours has, heck it might be 1,000ft lb
Happy towing in your new torque monster.
