    OK, All I'm finding is the tow rate if 15k on a 05 F350 crew cab with 4.30 gears. I thought I saw something that had a higher tow rate of 16k but with a total of 26k with truck and trailer. Is this right?

    House is going on the market and the business is shutting down.

    I'm going to move around Maryville or Townsend, TN and get the hell out of Florida. I am sick of the crap here and a change in pace could be good for me and the wife. But the house selling will take time so If I'm lucky first of the year I should be there.
