Tow haul mode?
Pulling 10,000 lb fifth wheel with f350, 6.4 deisel.. do you have to always use tow haul mode even on flat interstates?

Every time I start my truck I hit the TH and EB buttons. Keeps the line pressures up un the trans and keeps the trans from going into too high of a gear and lugging, example 6th at 45. Also allows the EB to work the best so the brakes last longer solo driving and also slows the trailer when towing. Also keeps the turbo/EB working properly.
Where is the EB button?
I have the same truck as you, 2011 F350SRW 6.7PSD.
There is no switch for the exhaust brake. It is always there. To activate, you just need to tap the brake.
I used it going down the Sunwapta Pass on Highway 93 in the National Park. It kept the whole rig at a nice even 80kmh. No stress, no white knuckles, no moving from gas to brake and back again.
That's kinda my point. There is no EB button. It works ALL THE TIME not just in TH mode. BUT the rpms have to be at least 3K for you to feel the difference. Try the manual mode and see for yourself.
