Could not agree more. Bought mine a month ago and I have towed or hauled something atleast once a week. This is the most weight I have towed yet. https://www.f150forum.com/members/jg...9146-imag0214/

nice, thats what trailers are for!
beat the **** out of the trailer, not the truck
new bearings for those 3500# trailers are like $30 and take an hour to do the job.
you can pick them up for $600-800 all the time on craigslist


with a load like yours SpeedDemon, id be worried about my back window with those logs stacked that high!
you poor canadians get all the cold weather, but none of the nice hardwood to burn

Lol I have pretty much all the steel I need to build myself a trailer. I'd like to build an 18 foot trailer. The rack on the truck helps keep things out of the back window but with my luck I'll still end up taking it out. The reason for the crappy wood in the truck is because im clearing my land for my new house ad it's free wood lol.
