Congrats on the F250 my 16 f150 3.5 had broken motor mounts at 56,000 miles our camper is only like 3500 dry, just then got a 23 f350 then at 1500 miles it was a lemon some electrical charging system fault. I just picked up a 24 F250 XLT premium package with the fx4 off road this thing is loaded evidently it was a customer order that was not picked up so I was able to get it so far after a week it is awesome

I am a Ford guy too. I started out with a 72 Mach I in High School that I bought and paid for myself. I have always driven a Ford and I am 66 years old. I worked in trucking most of my life and I am glad to see that you got a gas engine. Diesels require a lot of maintenance and diesel tanks can be nasty and require biocon fuel treatment for water and algae problems. Unless you’re in construction or pulling extremely heavy loads I vote for a gas engine every day. Love the look of your new truck! Congratulations on the purchase!

Very cool! Good idea to keep the stationary nerf/step bars. It's good to have those to help protect the rocker panels, and great to step up on for short people like me. LOL I'm glad you got the bigger truck, it's not just more towing power, it's being able to stop safely with a big trailer attached. You can tow with a lot of vehicles, but when your trailer is going to push your tow vehicle instead of stopping, it's a problem. I'm into vintage trailers and I see it a lot, its scary.

I once spoke with a Dodge engineer ( he was responsible for certifying the tow rating on their trucks) and his only upgrade recommendation was an aftermarket rear end cover and make sure to use synthetic rear end lube. When you pull up a long grade, the rear end gets no rest and he had seen rear ends with regular lube at over 250 degrees at times. He recommended an aftermarket rear cover to get more capacity. That and a good synthetic and you should be good to go for many miles. I love ford trucks and you will enjoy it a great deal.

Enjoy the new truck. It will tow your rv easily but I did want to comment on the selecton of engines. When we first started pullin a g trailer (about 2000), I bought an F-250 crew cab with the then 7.3L powerstroke. At that time, it could be difficult to even find diesel at a fuel station as diesels were not that common. On a trip to the Upper Penisula, we were on a 2 mile long 5% grade. I had a Suburban with a similar size trailer beside in teh right lane. As we went up the hill, I never lost momentum while the suburban fell behind. That is what convinced me that if I ever towed again that I would always own a diesel. There really is not comparison between a gas and diesel. If you travel enough with your RV, at some point, you will probably wish you had the diesel. The oil changes are more expensive (interesting, my 1999 Porsche Boxster takes more oil than my diesel did) and I know you have to use DEF as well these days but other than that, it is not a big difference. Anyway, enjoy the new truck as there is nothing like a large truck.
