    What are you towing your Cyclone 4012 with

    This is a question for all of the Cyclone 4012 owners. What are you guys pulling your Cyclone 4012 with? Is anyone pulling with a single axle truck? I have Ford 2003 F-350 with a V-10. The V-10 doesn't have enough engine to pull the Cyclone 4012 up the big hills. It looks like it is time to upgrade.
