Titan came out JUST after I bought my F150, and I was pissed! Of course, that was the last year for my style and over 15 years later, I'm happy to have more "classic" styling..

Pity about the mpg though, but that’s average for a gasser towing. The diesel doesn’t do much better, at around 12-13 loaded down, but it’s got 4:10 gearing, and will drink the fuel if pushed past 70.
I do echo your sentiments on the new silverados. Round fender wells have come full circle, but they uglied the rest of the truck up in the process.
The first Titan was one of the best ever looking trucks, still is. We will get used to the new ones, they are everywhere here now. I'm actually looking at FCA for the next one, another Tundra does not melt my butter.Attached FilesIt's all about the good life and staying easy with the world - Lyle Lovett

The notches on the bars naturally want to keep the trailer straight, and this one is a light duty weight distribution too. Even if the trailer starts to wag, a light tap on the spike will pull it back straight, lifting off the throttle is about the worst thing you could do. On that subject, I’m a huge fan of prodigy brake controllers, has internal sensors to control the amount of trailer braking. Keeps the braking smooth in towns without being intrusive.
That’s interesting about the tundras though, they don’t come with a rear sway bar?Last edited by MichaelFZ1; 11-09-2018, 05:00 AM.

GM trucks don't ether, but the GM suvs do.
You can just upgrade the front and add poly bushings rather than add one in the rear.
But took the mall crawler wheels off and bought me

The 2017 Rossi Minichamps showed up from Belgium last night.
All caught up until they release his 2018 bike sometime next month or early next year.
George hangs out on the bottom row, though it seems Minichamps is done making his bikes and never came out with a 2012 bike some strange reason.Attached Files2006 Cobalt Blue Yamaha FJR1300A

Have pulled ~5-6000 lb trailers without a weight distribution hitch and had no issue. Haven't really had the weight in the bed to complain about ride stability.Attached Files
