[QUOTE="L8APEX, post: 16291379, member: 51947"] Back in '09 after my sister and bro in law moved to Colorado and a year or so later bought a house in Lakewood I got tasked with hauling their crap because I had a truck (04 Lightning). Still managed 12-14mpg 550 miles each way. Premium was near > $4 a gallon so it wasn't cheap. But it had everything from a refrigerator, washer and dryer, beds, new furniture... all sorts of stuff. My truck bed had the bed rug and a gaylords speedster cover which made it like a big trunk, but it was full with just her clothes. Thankfully I was able to keep the trailer fairly neutral balance, but slightly more weight toward the tongue. The 2nd gen Lightning (especially the 03-04) are one of the few 10th gen 150s that really could tow, but with all the super duty parts it seed fitting. Not to mention 8 threads for the plugs vs 4. Adjusted my cal-tracs to counter any sag. She towed great. Gas mileage was about the same empty running empty. Just hard to make bricks aerodynamic.
