Kevin, thanks for posting your door stickers. That HDPP gives you probably close to 1000lbs above the average F150, well worth a search! It's encouraging to see that they are actually available other than special order. Also interesting to see what Ford recommends for pressure with the E rated tires. Some of us have upgraded to E from the OEM P rated and there is discussion about what pressure to run. 55 is about what I decided on using the tire mfg load tables, so good to have some confirmation.
Your welcome :)
Yes, we wanted to a TV that was not stressing when pulling our TH. We also know that we may get a bit larger TH at some point.
At the same time the TV is my wife's daily driver. So we wanted to stay with a F150.
I had about given up and was going to start looking at F250's. Then we discovered the HDPP. It is more like a 250 than a 150 in specs...heavier frame, bigger brakes, bigger radiator and trans cooler, etc. But it still has the EB for daily driving.
btw, we run the tires at 35 psi when not towing, that is per the tire manufacturer chart, and makes for a more comfortable unloaded ride.
