Hi Guys,
Great trucks!!! I am looking for a truck to tow my 1990 Formula 311. Been looking at Ford F250 Superduty 2003 - 2007 because I like the look. I don't see too many of them on here. I've heard mixed reviews on them. Any feedback would be awesome!!! If you are still considering them, also look for a F350 single rear wheel axle. There is very little difference between a 250 and a 350 SRW. Basically, it's in the springs and those are easy to change out if needed. That will expand your pool of potential trucks. |

Used my rig last weekend to tow my boat to south Florida. It was the first time for me towing longer than an hour with this truck. Well... I didn't make it an hour before the NEW bearings had an issue on one wheel of the trailer. Damn near caught on fire! :angry-smiley-038: Five hours later I was back on the road and had a wonderful trip for 1100 miles. Didn't even feel like a boat was back there and I got a little over 12 MPG. I flew home late Wednesday and it's phucking freezing and snowing. I can't wait to get back down there and do some boating! :D
Some pictures... |
Craig- what does your freightshaker have in it for power and how fast were you running it to get 12mpg. I pulled my gun with my 11 3500 Duramax and saw around 13-14 back from Miami last year.

It's got a CAT 3126 with a 6 speed Allison. I was going 60-65 most of the time with little to no traffic for the entire trip. I wasn't in a hurry. ;) :D
It doesn't seem to make much of a difference with this truck if I'm towing or not as far as gas MPG goes... |

Craig , is that 3126 a 300 hp ? also what gears are in the rearend ? also tire size please . I have a 2002 f650 with 300 cat and 6 sp allison and 433 gears and 245-70-19.5 tires about 33 inches tall . I only get 11 mpg not towing at 70 . I am thinking of changing the tires to 255-70-22.5 . they are about 36 inches tall . I wonder if that would be to tall or not ? anybody have any thoughts on it ?
