[QUOTE="Daybreak, post: 78135, member: 1332"] Howdy, I too was in the market for a bigger tow rig and looked over all the options. I was really leaning towards a Ford Super Duty F-550. But with where the price tage was heading and the pulling stats, I went looking into the used medium truck market. I bought a 2001 Freightliner FL60. It had only 68k miles on it, and was really setup well from the factory when it was ordered. Cat 3126b 275hp fuller 6-speed extended cab air brakes, air ride,with a aluminum bed setup for gooseneck work. :) pulling a 32ft dual tandem trailer with 25,000 of hay with ease. ;) The pulling stats for the Ford F series was the best out there for a truck. But the medium duty trucks have so much more pulling power. That's what made the decision easy. [img]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v722/DaybreakAngus/WebFL60.jpg[/img] [/QUOTE]
