2000 Ford F550, 48' Cargo Mate (22' LQ w/slide, 18" roof raise).
The truck is a chassis cab truck with Fontaine modification It is quite a bit heavier than a reg F350 .
And my trailer is longer and not aluminum so it seems about right.
Just seems like an awful lot of mass to get rolling and stop I'm glad I have the bigger truck brakes and tires.
