Question about a 5.9 in a 05 f-650
#18
Son, click on the link below. Those are both one ton SRW truck, one a megacab. The trailer weighs 8,000lbs by itself. That old thing pulling is a bone stock, 160 raw hp 92 Dodge, if I can do it with that, you can do just fine less the weight of the trailer, and with 70 more hp.

u dont need an F650 to pull thta...u can pull that with a 1/2 ton gasser...anyways...the hp #s are practically irrelevant...did u know that older full size semis that had the N 14 cummins were rated for around 300 hp?....u gotta remember that the axle is NOT 3.5 or 4.10...and then u have the gears...they are very deep...but if its jjust for 2 cars then dont bother getting it...i see mainly 1 ton dodges here towing 4 car trailers all day every day up here
