The truck is a chassis cab truck with Fontaine modification It is quite a bit heavier than a reg F350 .
And my trailer is longer and not aluminum so it seems about right.
Just seems like an awful lot of mass to get rolling and stop I'm glad I have the bigger truck brakes and tires.

I tow with a dodge 3500 and would hate to have to stop it in a hurry. I think theres alot of 1 ton trucks out there towing way too much weight. I would love to have a larger truck to tow my trailer.
