| Member Posts: five Location: Des Moines, Iowa | I take a 2010 F-150 FX4, supercrew shortbox. It has a trailer tow package and a 5.four V8 motor. I am looking at purchising a Sundowner 6906 2 horse. I accept been told I can tow information technology with my shortbox with a B&W hitch and possibly a half dozen inch extension... Need your thoughts and expertise. | ||

| Member Posts: 32 | I pull my 2006 Sundowner 2H straightload with a F150. I had a 2010 F150 and a month ago traded upwardly to a 2011 F150 with the Ecoboost engine and tow package. I am so pleased with how this new truck pulls, compared to my concluding truck with a V8. This truck has a stiffer suspension, although I do programme to add Timbrens to it. Had them on my last truck, and it definitely improves the ride stability. I have a 6.v' bed on my truck, and commonly don't accept any issues with interference with the gooseneck. Have a Primus brake controller and don't have any problems stopping, and trailer doesn't push me. If you accept a 5.5' box, I practice believe I would go the extension..... | ||

| Member Posts: 5 Location: Des Moines, Iowa | I idea the new Shadow gooseneck with LQtrs was designed to be pulled by a 1/2 ton truck. That is what all the ads show. Is this true? | ||

| Member Posts: half-dozen Location: Williston FL,32696 | It is truthful. I wrote the wrong numbers down before. The ane/2 ton truck is the one in the ad for the Stablemate Liveing Quarter. | ||
