Default key stone 31sqbwe

35' x8' #750 touge. i have an 11' f150 5.0 Sup crew 145" WB..i have the opportunity to haul this nugget back down to my old college for football season. it would only be myself/ G.friend/ and her friends.. 150+110+110+100=470.. the specs per online says 750 tounge weight.. 470+750=1220 of my 1246 GVWR so i under cut by 26#..i will not taking anything else because we wood only be using it to sleep in (no water/food/ ect.) i gues actually we'd need one set of cloths for game day but that is all..i just read on another thread about lots of wag from 30+ footers on half tons but its wood be 160 miles round trip.

any input is appreciated!

Brute - you're wayyy too close for me but "to each his own" . . . . use a weight distributing hitch (be sure to get one that supports the use of surge brakes if that is what your trailer has on it) and using that wd hitch will also help alleviate trailer "wag" . . . wag can also be reduced or even eliminated by loading heavier on the tongue (think "front end")

tell everyone to go on a diet!! . . . with those weights, I think they already did!
