Re: [A/S] Tow vehicle for 28' Classic

["Chris Siiteri" <chris@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Ford has just begun it's ad campaign blitz for the newly redesigned F150.  I 
spoke with a dealer and it has the towing capacity of the F-250 less just 500 
lbs (also its new look is patterned on the F-250).  This is from the Ford.com 
site:

"Mark Phelan's write-up in the Detroit Free Press: "The F-150 handles heavy 
trailers much better than the Chevrolet Silverado or Dodge Ram, for instance, 
and the current [Toyota] Tundra isn't even in the game." But when you watch 
the 2004 F-150 haul massive equipment over the rugged hills of Ford's Arizona 
Proving Grounds with seeming ease, you'll know what best-in-class low-end torque 
and best-in-class towing capacity are all about. 

For now, I will keep truckin in my 2001 Excursion, 7.3L diesel, which tows our 
28' Ambassador beautifully.
