I'm pretty sure the reel motor is supplied by the 12V system, so you might want to make sure the battery is in good shape, and that the 12V connections from the reel to the battery system are tight...

But the same can be said of any hitch you buy. There is no guarantee that Curt, Reese, B&W, or other brand of hitch won't fail under the right circumstances or defect.

My F-350 was held up twice at the rail yards for supposedly a "Conveyance Mechanical Failure". My arse, they sidelined the auto carrier to transport higher priority cargo. Anyway, it added almost 3...

Definitely a nice truck. I had considered getting a Duramax 3500HD. I liked the exterior looks of the Chevy trucks, but decided I liked the technology of the Fords a bit better, so went with a F-350...

Possibly correct for a 2019 F350, but are you sure that’s correct with a 2021 or above F350? They did change the method of sensing in the newer units so I believe they do work with 5th wheels.

Yes, if you get vents you can close off, you can direct more air to the front IF both AC's use the same ducting. We do this in our Avalanche to make it very comfortable in the main living area. We...
