Whats the pickup and whats it plated for if you don't mind me asking.

I'm thinking of getting a ford f150 4x4. From everything i've read the yank trucks are in a different relm when it comes to carrying and towing.

 

Hi, its a ford f250 super duty with 7.3 powerstroke diesel, 6 speed stick shift. Rated on V5 to tow 11ton on a gooseneck and can tow 3.5 ton on normal overun braked trailer and doesn't know its there. Class 7 mot and about to get a tacho fitted but trying to avoid an O licence if I can. I personaly wouldn't have a 150 (used to run a gmc 1500) the yanks only class them as a 1/2 ton pickup and if you want a work horse then you need a 250 or 2500 (dodge/chevy/gmc) but that's my opinion! Mate runs a dodge 1500 with the 5.7 hemi magnum multi displacement engine (runs on 4 cylinders basicaly when not under stress so improves mpg a lot), gas converted and engine etc is fantastic but running gear struggling abit with a lot of hard work and he's wishing he went for the 2500 now.
