Just got back from picking up the new trailer using the new F150 and a loaner cap.

Nice setup!!! From the photos it looks like your trailer is nose high. You should make sure it's level when hooked up to the truck or even slightly nose down. Mine looked the same after the dealer installed the WDHitch on our new trailer. The 5hr ride home was horrible and not a great first experience!!! After an hour of adjusting the hitch correctly myself it made all the difference in the world. How do you like the towing power of that little V6?? Pretty impressive isn't it!!! Best of luck with the new setup!!
P.S.- I am very jealous of your trailers parking spot!!!!

Yeah, it does look high, but it's hard to tell without a level surface to mess with it on. The tapered skirt doesn't help and the rear bumper is actually below the frame. The front tire of the trailer is tucked up a little more than the rear. I'll mess with it when we get from Mayo...
The F150 pulls great. It rarely rev'd up and next time I can use the gear limit that I figured out after dropping the trailer off We had to rush back the 550 miles with the trailer Saturday so we could turn around an run another 1000 miles to MN by today. I didn't get nearly as much time to play with things or weigh anything this trip.
