@sdjavalina what you pulling your 330 with?

sdjavalina · February 2016

2010 F350 6.4

sdjavalina · February 2016

@06 Rinker 270 she pulls it no problem but I am going to upgrade in a year or so to a F550 dual rear wheel for safety.

Thats one BA truck, 550 even more so! Wish you were closer I am in the market for something to pull mine in a year or so.

sdjavalina · February 2016

just let me know i will sell it for nada book value when your ready. we can meet in the middle. she is a good truck and well maintained. she has 108 thousand on here now she is worth around 22000.00 without the upgrades i did to her. dvd pioneer deck backup cam tint and front end suspension. with bilstien shocks.

You only need an F350

rasbury · February 2016

It does pretty well- keep in mind we are pretty flat here in Fl- would not suggest for your area unless you had the max towing pck. on the new F150 then you'd be fine! It's an amazing thing to what that truck pull that big ol boat out of the ramp I go to which is pretty steep. I get a lot of comments- especially from the guys with their 250 4x4 diesel trucks! Mind you, I would like to have a 250 but I also drive this daily.

sdjavalina · February 2016

Yea our boat with trailer is 16250 lbs so I like to have the extra juice under the hood for pullin the hills

rasbury · February 2016

well @sdjavalina , I'm pretty partial to my F150 but no way it would handle that sort of weight! that's a lot to drag down the road....

rasbury · February 2016

lol Handy.....that's a good one!

rasbury · February 2016

I agree with Hany, get a 350 dually and you'll be fine.

Handymans342 · February 2016

Hahahahaah

randy56 · February 2016

Handy that would make a good Christmas card!

Handymans342 · February 2016

Ok guys, which one of you most represents this guy besides Dream Inn??? Cause it looks just like him and his wife LOL

Dream_Inn · February 2016

Thanks Handy! But it needs to have two kids looking from the other side of the isinglass. I will say I'd be looking at getting the boat out in two weeks if I weren't waiting until we're done with vacation in March. My plan is to go down this weekend and tinker with a few things though.

06Rinker270 · February 2016

Dang two weeks Dream? Got me all excited now, even checked the forecast for March. Why not go in before vacation instead of waiting? Here is my March forecast. Looks like above freezing to me. What sucked about hauling out late due to nice weather was the water was shut off before I even got hauled out. Had to put her to rest dirty, tons to do before I splash...starting this weekend.

Patrick,

I'm gonna hold since she is all covered and nicely waxed with everything else spotless underneath. It's two full weekends in March that I won't be around, so no since in uncovering to leave her sit. I'll say, first full 10 day forecast in March above freezing, you are good to go! You may also find out you don't have water initially when you put in either. That is what usually happens for me. I will get down there this weekend and many others just tinkering around under the cover though. That will help.

06Rinker270 · February 2016

From the looks of it Ill be splashing real soon. Better get my list done asap.

sdjavalina · February 2016

thats a great picture comic. @Handymans342 I have to try and show that to my gal.

Howdy, Stranger!
