48re
A few times a year I pull about 26,000 pounds on a gooseneck with my 07 DRW Cummins. I have the 48re transmission. The truck is all stock. A Ford lover told me the other day that the 48re won't hold up well to that much weight. What do you guys think?

I think it depends on how you drive it mostly.

I think the Ford lover ought to shut up, he isn't speaking from experience. Keep it maintained properly and drive it sanely, you'll be fine.
