  1. Probably right around 8000 lbs on flat,up hill never missed a lick.I see your in the market for a truck ,rent 1 of the new f 150's with the eco -boost for a day hook it to a trailer and pull it all over gods creation. Though i can not speak for the new f 150's i think you will find the eco-boost will pull what you want easily.
  2. Lol,I have a 2014 F 150 Super Crew 3.5L Eco-Boost Max Tow Package that pulls like a Freight Train never had an issue I am very happy with this truck and would and will buy another Eco-Boost. My truck does not make some sound through the radio to make it sound like a V8 it is quiet,I am confident that it is no harder to work on than any Modern day V8.I have owned many V8 trucks through the years and this truck would out pull any of them.Just my opinion!
  3. Love mine would definitely recommend
  4. Twas the night before Christmas, and out in the garage. Two Ventures were sitting...... a V 4 montage. But all of the streets they were covered with snow.... Not a safe place to ride, not a spot on the road. The tenders were plugged in and humming away. Keeping batteries charged on that cold winter day. The chrome was all shiny, the paint bright and clean, But the weather outside, it was nasty and mean. Then out in the yard I heard such a sound, But how can that be, there wasno-one around? Then out in the driveway was a thunderous roar, The unmistakable sound of a Yamaha V4. The driver was plump dressed in leather and black. A long beard of white and a big leather sack. He went to the house and walked right through the door, Leaving gifts by the tree and gifts on the floor. A helmet and shield and a new set of lights, to make the ride safe on those warm summer nights. A new set of pipes just to make the bike sing. Chrome license plate cover, a bit of Diamond Cut bling. Then back to his Venture, old Biker Clause ran. He fired it up and lifted the stand. And I heard him exclaim as he roared out of sight Merry Christmas to all and to all a good night.

    Clutch

    Okay, so here it goes. 2 yrs ago I installed a Barnett pressure plate because of clutch starting to slip when getting on it. All has been fine for about 15000 miles and about 6500 of them were pulling a trailer. Well, now after a 3700 mile trip last week pulling my trailer(trailer weight is about 125# empty) clutch is starting to slip again when getting on it. So suggestions of what to do? Should I put another Barnett pressure plate in or should i do clutch plates and pressure plate (bike has about 32000 miles on it )?
