Hey guys just wanted to get in and started. I recently purchased an '06 F-350 in Clarksville. I run a concrete wall company and purchased the truck to pull a 19,000 LB trailer. We will see how it holds up. The truck is basically a work truck: Crew cab, dual wheel, 4X4, long bed, camper package, tow command system, vinyl seats and rubber floor(its a dirty job). Recently purchased the Edge Platinum and am considering opening up the exhaust( still under research). Any and all suggestions are welcome and hope to jump in quickly here.

Welcome to SDD Rob. You should start with guages so you can see what you are doing with all of the other mods. Next would be an exhaust system to get you flowing right. I would not put on a programmer until you are out of warranty. Ford frowns on programmers and chips.

get some sorta i dont know too much about the torque shift trans in those 6.0 but pulling that much weight i would look for any upgrades avaliable for it.. also first things first get yourself some gauges, trans temp, pyro (egt), and boost...

if ya got edge platinum i would definetly go with a larger exhaust. air intake from what i here on those 6.0 are good , but always room for upgrades. MBRP seems to be the popular exhaust for most of the guys on here, personally i like my hog exhaust.. good luck
