I must be a towaholic:hammer: . I spend my weekends looking for stuff to tow with my Super Duty. This weekend was Waffle House then to Nations Rent. Last month I rented a Bobcat S130 which is 5080lbs. This time I asked for a heavier tractor please:D . They loaded up a larger Bobcat S185 which weighs in about 5850knana . The trailer was substantialy heavier as well. No problems towing up hills and twisting through rural hwys. The Nation Rent guys told me I needed a 5th wheel hitch to tow anything larger:( . I really don't want to cut a hole in my bed. I included a smaller clickable image jsut for you Rocks!.

They won't rent you a Bobcat unless you have a F250 or better:D . I bet your L is about maxed out with that load, not half of a F250. Plus the Bobcat and trailer is closer to 7500-8K lbs gross. Why you always gotta deflate someones post, thrills:confused: .

Terry, I have seen a fifth wheel install that is flush with the bed. Not sure of the brand but they are out there.
