Don’t do anything for a month. Make a decision after your emotions settle. You may find you no longer care about it or even notice it. You might even get a few more dings that supersede this one.
Takes at least 32 minutes. How dare you sir.
Helping a buddy install one today and it’s costing him a few minutes afterwards helping me install a prefab awning over my basement door. Win win.
I just went thru this with a 2600RB. My truck could pull it but it shouldn’t have. I did everything and the trailer still pushed the truck around too much for my comfort level. I just took ownership of a new super duty and it’s night and day better.
1500’s just aren’t properly up to the task...
I would also like to make 1 additional comment about 4x4, specifically auto. When it’s wet or you are on a gravel to pavement transition with heavy cross traffic it comes in real handy. Without 4 auto, you wait or spin. Push auto and floor it and it hooks up and flat out goes. Kinda a prick...
Just my personal opinion here, but it sounds like you are getting the wrong vehicle.
Buying a great big vehicle and worrying about mpg?
Buying a towing vehicle and opting for a smaller engine?
Buying an off-road capable vehicle and cutting it off at the knees and not getting 4x4?
Maybe you...
Well, you could be like me and have it approved and waiting on parts for a year. Dealership never called me and i checked with them several times and finally just gave up. F350 is scheduled to be built next week. Fingers crossed. I’ve been waiting months. Hoping i don’t get bumped.
lol, if it were only that easy. We moved everything forward. It was the lowering of the ball that finally did the trick. Was a combination of many factors as usual. Big pain in the but to work out especially while traveling. We stopped and adjusted so many times. It was nuts.
I had the same problem towing 6500lb trailer and found many things helped.
1) Hellwig sway bar on the stiffest setting
2) Cooper XLT AT3 tires aired to between 60-80lbs depending on your tolerance and feel.
3) I had originally tried a Recurve R3 1000lb hitch and it was woefully inadequate. I...
The hitch will shift a little weight back to the trailer, but not much.
You typically "need" 10-12% of your trailer weight on the tongue. No matter how you slice it, if your trailer weighs 8000lbs, you need at least 800 on the tongue or else you will get sway or the tail wagging the dog. The...
I am towing a grand design with similar weights. Fortunately, there’s only 3 of us and the other 2 are light females. I had a major issue with the tail wagging the dog starting at 55mph. I was using a recurve r3 hitch 1000lb and upgraded to and 1200lb equalizer and all issues resolved. Pulls...
Hard enough to get some movement. I suspect any resistance you are encountering might be dried paint or something else causing a little bonding. I wouldn't go nuts on it, but a healthy whack won't hurt anything. If you move it too far, you can just whack it back the other way. It's all pretty...
This is exactly why I don't purchase used vehicles.
If you can't get it out, I'd suggest moving your head around to different positions to grime up the remainder of the clean areas to match.
I think there might be some confusion between waxing and polishing. Wax is a protectant. Polishing takes off a layer of clear.
Anyone with a buffer and some polish can ruin any painting job fast.
