Maybe you could reread what you wrote after having that many beers it could help?

Here is the deal. I have an F250 and an Excursion 3/4 ton and then there is my Titan. Guess what ... My Titan out tows my Excursion and is very close to the F250. I cant get everybody in the F250 so I use my Titan.

My TT is 29ft and ~ 8000 loaded.
