1st real tow for my F350

[Sawboy]

Took a trip down to Springfield IL with the 65 Catalina in tow this weekend. It's the first real work my F350 has had. What an outstanding vehicle. Set the cruise to 60 mph (2k rpm), got in the right lane, turned the air on and just relaxed. I never felt pressured in a stop or a turn since the integrated brake controller works so flawlessly and the dually rear just flat HOLDS ITS GROUND, and the power was PLENTY good with the 4.30 gears behind me. It's only got 6800 miles now and I nailed 13.5mpg. I think that's pretty good since it's nowhere near broken in yet.

Just wanted to share my
