In January we just purchased a Heartland North Trail 26LRSS (dry weight 5,600)and are pulling it with a 2014 Expedition (towing capacity 9200). I am now looking for a F250 but would really like to be able to use the Expedition since it is nicer to ride around in once we get to our destination and has dry cargo storage. When we are on the highway and ANYTHING passes us (pickup truck) it feels like something is literally trying to push us off the road. I won't even mention what I think when i see a semi coming. I cannot drive more than about an hour due to being totally exhausted from fighting the rig to stay on the road. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
I originally purchased a ProPride to try to keep my Expy. It was still a handful to control over 50 MPH. I also stopped by ProPride and had Shawn drive it. He suggested LT tires to improve control. I ended up with a pickup because I didn't want to throw any more cash into an Expy running at its limits.
