That was my point. The EcoBoost develops good torque at low-end, i.e. below 2500; so not so bad torque for a gasoline engine--in response to your quote. But I agree, nothing matches the diesel--I mean, 765 at 1600rpm is sick. Don't nobodies gas engine do that!

^ Yes, you can never have enough trailer or a big enough truck. Give in, resistance is futile.

(24' Featherlite and F350 dually diesel- full disclosure)

Oh, whenever I meet someone who says that such and such SUV/Truck doesn't even feel such and such trailer, I think that's someone I don't want on the track with me...

PJ's trailer, ex-Mooty is a TPD trailer. Personally I think it's what God would have if he had a trailer. This should be on the top of any trailer list.

If you're east of the Mississippi I would take a look at these enclosed trailers. I've seen one up close and I really like them a lot.

Made a deal with Martin on his 8045 today...Thanks Martin!
Also committed on a 2013 Touareg TDI. It has a 10yr/100,000mi powertrain warranty and free scheduled maintenance for 3yr/36,000 mi. They came off msrp $3000 and gave me my target price for my hooptie that I traded in. Seemed like an OK deal.
