I am using the Equalizer WDH 1400lbs that is overkill for this trailer but this is what I have... the truck felt solid on the road with these tires LT BFG All terrain 285/65R20. I still had great fuel millage towing this trailer..

I changed truck since last summer for a Lariat 2015 and I hope it tows as great as this black beast on the picture. Will see this next week...

My truck is a 15 lariat sport 3.5 EB sport with 355 gears. Let me know how she pulls the eagle. Dealership in my area has a 16 eagle 284bhbe on order which will be arriving mid May. Really like the layout but not sure how my truck will do with the this TT. Other options I'm looking is the Jayco 28BHBE, the Imagine 2800BH and the 3150BH from Grand Design. My payload for my Lariat is 1574lbs so I have to be careful not to exceed payload of the truck.

2015 3.5 EcoBoost with 3.55 and Max Tow. Pulling a 2016 Grand Design Imagine 2800BH with an Equalizer 12k WDH. Pulls pretty good!

Sounds reasobable to me. This past weekend, we pulled our 24', which weighed 4440# 450 miles, from Richmond, VA area to Blacksburg, VA. I have the 3.73 rear end with limited slip differential with HD pkg. I averaged 9.2 going out, and got it up to 9.5 round trip.

O yeah think we killed every bug on the way down.

Your set up looks beautiful, really liking the Imagine. More now that I can see what it will look like at the rear of my truck, I too have a white [ oxford ] truck and I think this combo looks really nice. Congrats on the TT, cant wait to get ours.

Nice to see someone else with one! Picked up ours about three weeks ago. Haven't had a chance to use it yet though. Hope to in the next couple of months. It pulled really well with our 14 FX4 Eco boost.
