There is one in particular I'm interested in. It has sat under cover and on concrete (2 yrs) since it was originally purchased, what concerns would the forum have with this type of unit?
Welcome to the forum,
You need to give a little more info, on your truck, and the actual model FW. It helps to know the GVWR of the FW, to get an idea of the loaded pin weight.
An F250 is a good tow vehicle! The newer ones will carry more pin weight than an older one. Most 250s should handle a middle sized FW.
PM me if you want, I tow a mid sized FW, GVWR 12,110, with a 13 F250.
