    Bunk bed ladder?

    Same thing with our Torque, no ladder for the top bunk from the manufacturer. We had the dealer include one as part of the deal. Took two trips back to the dealer as it seem there are two length of bunk ladders. Other things to watch for that should be included but not always; spare tire...

    F-250 gasoline--- should I switch?

    Not quite at $250 here in Canada but getting close. Think the last one was around $180. Fuel filter change was a little over $250...

    F-250 gasoline--- should I switch?

    If your main use for the truck is commuting back and forth to work and the truck pulls your trailer fine, I would stick with the gas engine. The diesels are designed to pull heavy and long. They do not handle daily commutes all that well and maintenance costs are sky high in comparison to a gas...

    Things to look for on 2014 Cyclone 3100

    I would try and verify that the generator has been properly serviced as per what I am assuming is Onan's specifications. I believe they are looking for oil and filter changes every 150 hours and a Onan center tune up every 450 hours, part of which I think involves cylinder head...

    Showers

    When random camping we do a lot of outdoor showers. A couple of tarps attached near the back of the trailer in a "V" pattern provide privacy and allow easy in and out access. We pick up water from local lakes or streams so we are not using our fresh water. We heat the water either over a open...

    My new 2017 F350

    I am curious about the pin height, as you mentioned from the ground to the bottom of the king pin. We pulled a little nose high with our old 08 F 350 and the 17 F 350 is higher than our old truck. I am curious if some of the tow hauler model lines a better adapted for the new higher trucks. I...

    My new 2017 F350

    Nice rig, it looks like your trailer pulls level? May ask what the pin height of your trailer is and how much rail clearance you have?

    Ford Tow Technology Bundle and quad Beam Headlamps

    We picked up our 2017 F350 Platinum on the weekend, it took me few minutes to realize the truck was turning the high beams off and on by itself. It is a great feature, a lot of times I just run on low beam as the constant on and off gets to be a pain. The adaptive cruise control is great as well...

    Leaking black water valve

    The extra valve is cheap insurance, beats cleaning the mess up if you dump when pulling the cap off. Not that many people bother with cleaning up after themselves.

    It's time to talk trailer safety chains.

    The crisscrossed safety chains helped immensely when I had a sled trailer with out a load on it pop off the ball on a bad section of highway. The trailer as it turned out did not have enough tongue weight empty which combined with a cheap trailer coupler resulted in a big dent in my back bumper...

    Kitchen Side Window

    I am curious if it would be possible to retrofit in a window on the kitchen slide of a 2015 Torque 321?

    To delete or not delete (DPF/EGR)

    We also deleted the DPF/EGR on our 08 6.4 and so far has been the best thing we have done with the truck, well next to a updated flash on the truck but that was related to another problem that Ford programmed in on a earlier flash (the dreaded over boost code). I found in the winter it was...

    '17 Torque 321 - Where is the water pump?

    On our '15 you pull the top riser off the stairs going up to the bathroom/bedroom and the pump is pretty much right there just in behind the water heater.
