Here is a picture of my old truck and trailer. The 2500 had to go to make room for the 07 3500 QC dually. I will post pics of the new truck and trailer together when I take the trailer out of storage for the winter.

1st rig, 2nd rig and 3rd rig. Yup, years ago I knew I was born to tow. Just couldn't quite grab the concept with the 1st rig - and yes, that's my tractor behind the corvette that started it all. Notice the approving finger of from my wife offering encouragement
2nd rig got more serious. 8K mile trip through TX, NM, AZ, and CO starting and finishing in NH. That poor 350 was in first gear for much of the time climbing those huge mountain passes at a brisk 15mph gasping in 100 degree heat. By the time I got back, the rear was making a bit of noise. Dealer told me that the magnet in the rear had completely melted from the heat and was only a flat pool of metal at the bottom of the housing. Of course I was pretty maxed out on the tow rating but the diesel suburban actually was 1500 lbs less or so and I needed to seat 7. Ignore the idiot at the back of the trailer.
3rd rig, what a joy. Bought the used cap for the last 3300 mile trip. Too much stuff for the three kids and horse. No room in the cab. Kept it's speed all the way on 81 and 77 from PA into NC
