Welp, I went and picked up my 24x40 pole building today (man-shed), also as my refers to it as my *mid life crisis*. Anyway, I hauled this out of Ohio to home roughly 120 miles round trip. Truck ran great, weighed it at the truck stop almost home and it came in at 23460. Tranny temp never went over 200 in fact, mostly stayed just under all the way home. Engine temp never moved in fact running 60-65 on the interstate, it pulled the hills great never seemed to move on the gage. All in all I was pleased with the performance, even gained speed going up hill a couple times (and yes it was a slow gain but it gained)

Don't run over that cat! Nice load. That trailer is it 24' overall deck length including the beavertail or 24' plus the beavertail?
