Hey, I'm usually the safety police.

And the brakes ween't bad- it's just astonishing that a trailer manufacturer would build a trailer and rate it for 10,500 lbs and only have brakes on one axle.

Fortunately I had my Excursion- it's got every braking & towing mod known to man on it. But we did get a whiff of pad on a couple of thise exit ramps.

What's scary is that most people wouldn't even think to look- and maybe set off in just barely enough truck (or less) thinking that "they wouldn't have built something if it wasn't OK"

Thier its done, I changed my screen name!!!!, I will never name myself after a boat again!! I used my initials and it is also my business's name:ernaehrung004:

Easy there Safety Chief...just yanking your chain cause, well, I can! :ernaehrung004:

Did you catch the part about Chris being behind the wheel? :D

Plus... some of those hills had really steep downhill grades. The truck did great. Made me interested in a similar one. Liked the way the diesel pulled. I had always towed with gas engines. What a difference. Plus... the mileage was better than expected. Great truck.

Not once did I press more than halfway on the pedal either. I could have run 85 up any of those hills but I really don't need to buy ANOTHER transmission this month.

(3 in shop trucks in Sept)

Come on Chris that Apache does not weight that much!!!!!!:rolleyes:

Like hell. Ways about what a 35 Fountain does- or more.

As it was yesterday, my guess, judging by the tug-on-the-hitch-o-meter, it weight a tad over 8K.

I belive you are right chris, just had to mess with you:ernaehrung004:

Hey... let's start a thread about how much a 28 weighs.

:D :D
