Probably not, we really like the Impact 303 and God only know how much work/money I've put into it since I bought it.

Good on ya, Vernon! I like all black trucks, and Ford's Ruby red in particular! But our truck can look dirty even leaving the car wash....

Thanks Jim. I'm excited for sure. No more living on the edge of weight capacities. My present truck, when scaled, was within 140 lbs or so of GVWR for the truck (10k). Oh, and I'm keeping my 2 month old 42 gallon external fuel cell/pump to put on the new truck....well, new to me truck.

Pre-congrats to you! If you're going a full ton, my Impact loves that combo.

Thank you.....I'm really excited about it. I'm sure I'll have some questions that will need to be answered by the Dually guys.

Oh how I know that feeling. Now pulling is pure joy. You will have to get a wash rag to wipe the smile off of your face! Very happy for you, Vern. Enjoy!

That is a beautiful truck. If you don't have extensions to get to your inside rear tires you can get some nice ones from Pacific Duallies.

That is/was going to be one of the first things I was going to ask the Dually guys! What is the best way to get acess to the inner wheels to check tire pressure and/or adjust it? I can't believe that you almost can't see the valve stem for the inner tire, much less being able to access it. Do you have any specific part numbers or a link?

Great looking truck. I'm sure you'll see and feel a significant improvement in towing stability. There's a big "step up" between a 2011 XLT and a 2016 KR. The bells and whistles changed so much from my 2013 to the 2015, I can only imagine the smiles every time you touch a button or your DW is chilly and you turn on her seat cooler... Enjoy your next trip, you've got the equipment to pretty much tow anything anywhere.....
