F-350
I have a 2004 F350 6.0L Powerstroke. It’s my work truck and I love it. I’ve done a bunch of stuff to improve hauling, like EGT and boost gauges, fast idle switch, fuel tranfer tank etc. Some of the stuff is documented here on the site.
A word about Goodyear tires: stay away from the Duratracs unless you like the feeling of trailer sway or need to climb rocks. Don’t put Wrangler MT/Rs on the front of a diesel. It will chew them up in a few months. They are perfect for the duals though. Use the Wrangler Silent Armors up front. There is more shoulder to the tire and they won’t cup as bad. They are also quieter. You can also get them in a “Pro Grade” that is made for vehicles that haul. The MT/Rs are awesome in the back because there are four so they distribute the load evenly, which means they are really quiet (no mud tire roar) and no cupping.

Nice. What kind of use does that trailer get? Horse shows?
My wife and I are finishing degrees while working full time, so it pretty much just hauls the horses to the vet. It used to haul to horse shows and rodeos. In the future, it will probably be getting more duty. I have to get my gray paint Shady started first.
I grew up with my mom having horses while she was showing them. I guess after moving out and going to college I didnt realize how much I really liked going to the shows…
