:'(<br><br>I think ya'll need to sell your truck and buy a 6.5 Chubby Turbo-D and drive that for a while. That is what I traded in<br><br>I finally got to test run the HO CTD and the trailer tonight. Of course it was empty and only 4500#, but still and all the engine didnt seem to labor. My Chubby would have been begging for more air and smoking black just with the trailer...let alone loaded.<br><br>Cant wait to get the horses on the trailer (another 2500#), water (100 gallon), gear and my fat a :-X girlfrind in the truck and see what happens. I vote no contest as the truck flew up a hill I would have normally been in 4rd gear mustering 40mph in with the chubby.<br><br>Needless to say I am more than pleased with money well spent.<br><br>Now to get the trailer lifted.

Out here a Chubby is aka a hamburger. No wonder your 6.5L turbo didn't pull worth squat.
