You think that thing just goes down the road and rolls along easily with all that load? Unk, you been in the tower too long in that thin air. At least get the big Ford motor. Think going down the road with no vacuum that activates all the power adders in that thing to make it work. It ain't made to work that hard for that long. Sorta like me. This is tireing me out here.
Did I ever think that I'd be having this discussion? Nope, but then I look @ new technology Mustangs running 140mph+ at 67% throttle, and Challengers running in the 10.40's (off the throttle?) when the cars they compete against go 10.90's on a good day, down hill, with a tail wind.

Technology marches on, if it works in race cars, why can't it work in other vehicles? Case in point....We've got ways to provide the vacuum we need in race cars, certainly woulldn't be that hard to do in a street vehicle would it?

Yea, I'd like to hook one up to my trailer too see for myself, but right now I'm studying, and asking questions.

Besides, I don't haul beer in my trailer....... Crown Royal & Grey Goose yes, but beer no. Lighter weight ya know.......
