OK, This is an after the fact question.
I have a 2002 Ford F150 with the 4.6 V-8 with the 3.55, Can tow #6900's.
I just bought an new Jayco Jay Flight 29BHS that has a dry weight of #5400's. And was wondering if there were any special concerns or things I should be aware of?
I will have a weight distribution hitch and sway control installed when I pick up the trailer. I already have a Tekonsha Voyager brake control in the truck and will have a Transmission cooler installed before I take delivery.
I already drive like a sissy when I am not towing a trailer and am really pretty careful. I have pulled a #3000 pop-up and my ATV trailer all over the place.
But I have never pulled anything this big.
What are you guys thoughts?
How is it one careless match can start a forest fire, but it takes a whole box to start a campfire?
