RE: cheap generators

I went with the Kipor IG3000. It is just as quite as the Honda for about $600.00 cheaper.
This is not true, they are not as quiet and you DO get what you pay for. Dont be cheap here, het a honda.

RE: Noob w/ TT questions

I wasn't gonna' go there(off topic), but my '96 1500HD is rated 7,500# towing with 350/3.08-LS axle/5-speed/tow pkg. ........comin' up on 201,000 total miles.....over 175,000 towing mostly +/-6,000# TT, and also the last two years 4,500# TH.......
(Replaced one clutch----OEM shocks---47 oil changes(Mobil One!) & 25 tranny/rear end lube changes!!!! Discs and drums are still pretty good, but I'm gonna' replace the original OEM pads/shoes next month!)
Yeah---I get into 4th in the hills---occasionally 3rd.....like md2lgyk said----that's what the clutch and shift lever are there for....
J
You guys are right, well sorta. My thoughts are to have a TV that can pull a TT up any hill without loosing OD or going to 2nd or what ever. I want to know my TV is up to pulling the load and a way to know that is it does not have to shift down to get up a hill or when the wind blows. Did that make any sence?

RE: My Towing Concerns

A few people have told me if the trailer is a 1,000# under the towing capacity of the rig to start with I should be good.
Try it and see.
You have to be carefull what people tell you. Some time its not allways the best advice.
And I am towing around half of what my truck will tow. And I still wish it had more in it.

RE: My Towing Concerns

You will not be happy with the performance. Like said above, with a little head wind or a slight incline you will be screaming the RPM's on you TV. Easy for me to say but I would look at a diesel. With the price of gas/diesel the cost of a 3/4-1 ton truck has gone way down.
Either way just becareful when towing

RE: Perfect speed for perfect MPG

I have tried different speed vs mpg. Between 62 and 72 mph is about 3mpg. SO I run 72mph.

RE: Is the F250 enough truck?

A F350 will not cost that much more $$ over the F250. The F350 will be alot more stable for you.

Basic battery question.

If you put a new and an older battery together you will only get the amount of power the that the weakest one has right?
Does that make since?
