I would buy a lightning in a heartbeat but IMO I don't think it will have the miles or ability that some think. I tow my RV that weighs 6700 LBS with my plat powerboost and I'm at the trucks max towing capabilities(payload). In my PB I can have only one other small person and the truck has to be...

It does not include them in the payload sticker on your door. What they are saying is to subtract all people and cargo from the sticker on your door. The OP is WAY overweight, no 34' RV should be pulled by a 1/2 ton. One factor is the weight as the hitch weight will no doubt be over 1K and the...

I feel the same way about the pro trailer assist. I installed the box on my travel trailer, used it once and now I never connect it. I'm sure it's great for some but I feel the " hand on bottom of steering wheel" method works better IMO.

Pin weight on any 5th wheel is going to exceed the payload of a lightning. I wouldn't try to pull a 5th wheel with any 1/2 ton in the first place. I think the bigger problem will be that the 5th wheel will almost guarantee you will be over payload. Ford is shooting for 2k and if they can hit...

I just used mine traveling down the east coast from NH to Disney and staying over night at Cracker Barrels we had everything running just as we would with shore power. I talked to a few fellow RV's next to us and asked if the engine starting in my truck bothered them and none of them even heard...
