does anyone have a one ton dually I can borrow for this weekends Alamo ride. My 2013 f150 won’t do the job of towing my trailer.

I will pay you for the rental and loan you my truck so your not without a truck for the weekend.

I am towing this to havasu and back

Check out Turo. People put their personal cars up for rent and it can be very reasonable.

What's wrong with your truck or is this a joke? That can't be over 2500lbs. Tacoma would pull that with ease.
My ecoboost doesn’t have the nessescary equipment to successfully tow this trailer.

I’m approaching my max gvcwr and my brakes will have a hard time stopping this. Also my hitch and ball are underrated for this size of a trailer and I’ll be putting other motorist at jeopardy.

I must be doing it wrong because my 05 Chevy 1500 pulls my 1000 on my dual axle trailer just fine, a little struggle at the top of the hills but not bad.

Sorry but it’s got to be a dually or bigger. We need to make sure I am safe.

No we need to make sure we are safe from you. If/when you find an F550 or an MRAP to use to tow your RZR for the weekend you better keep it at 55 MPH or under.

I’d let you borrow my Excursion with a 7.3, but I don’t think it would be safe for you with that type of load.

Well I picked up my trailer today with my f150 it struggled to get to 80 miles per hour. I had to cut off a few cars doing it too. I really need a bigger truck for this load. I need to make sure other motorist are safe around me.

This was with the trailer unladen, correct?

Have you considered just doubling the air pressure in the rear tires of your F150?

I had an 06 dodge with a Haisly machine double disc clutch and it was very hard to push the pedal in, some people could not do it.

The one thing I don't get is why they never offer a brake option on single axle trailers.

Ya know!
With a new born at home you need to think about safety, if you can’t find the dually, you should really consider staying home....

No need to put your life in harms way along with innocent fellow motorists!!!

I'd loan you mine but I actually just swapped out my Duramax for an Ecoboost to save some MPG so I don't think it would help much. It does have a Class V hitch though.
