Hey T-bone,
Does, the 02 have the 7.3 powerstroke? Wondering if you have the 6.0? What axle? Hey now, AZ to Co sounds like over the road! But i have done that too to go get something i wanted.

The trailer i use has tandem wheels so i can pull fine with a single rear wheel truck. That was a compromise, as a 4X4 was important, and dually 4X4's are hard to come by. You definately have an advantage if you blow a tire with the dually. With 4:10 gears, i get 17.5 to 18 mpg empty.

I live near an interstate and talk to alot of the light duty commercial haulers when fueling up. They will come off the road with 10 boat trailers stacked on top of one another and three car haulers all the time. The 30,000 lbs is what they say about weight too, with the goose neck trailers. The right trailer is just as important as the truck. I actually saw a 450 dozer for sale on e-bay, and was pictured on a single wheel dual axle trailer pulled with a 1 ton truck with receiver hitch. The dozer weight alone is 14-15K. I asked about how it towed, but only answer i got was trailer is not included. Regards.
