    Yea, my Haulmark's an aerodynamic brick, wish I'd gotten the V-Nose. Now they're making a V-Nose Low Hauler with aerodynamics, plus it fits in a garage.

    I have to adjust my MPG's. I thought I was getting 9-10 while towing our boat but that was with some none towing when I figured my MPG's. last tank I filled up was 8.5 mpg with about 50 miles of non-towing duty all the other miles (which wasn't many) had the boat in tow. If I can't get the mileage up some I might have to get rid of the truck. I need to get at least 10mpg's while towing.

    SD! Nothin' better as a prime-hauler. Light duty, half-ton F150's just don't "make it" for doin' a lot of towing! Especially, SC'ed "hot-rod" trucks! F350 is the best of all worlds!

    That is what I want but not in the budget. Just going to have to keep eating the gas. Love boating to much and can't afford to get a different truck.
