LOL. That's what everyone says.
It's looks long because it's not very tall. It's only 37' long and is lightweight.

Both photos are from late last month on a trip from NorCal to the Colorado Springs area, during a heat wave.

We've been there! But at that time we had a 1999 F250 V10 6.8L with 4.3 RAR towing a 32' 11k Komfort. No jake brakes, just gas engine in low gear intermittently braking firm, slowly, letting up and staring over again!

We used to have a 1999 F250 with a V10 and then a 2003 F250 with a V10, plus a couple different Lightnings. I've had this V10 for a long time and can't justify getting rid of it. It's been rock solid.
I recently put on big brakes and custom SS braided lines (before the road trip). Huge change in braking power and pedal feel. I only drive it once a week, sometimes every other week, but it puts a smile on my face every time. My daily driver is an XJR with huge brembos and it obviously outperforms the truck. But, the truck's pedal feel puts a smile on my face every time I touch the brakes.

6 piston on the front and 3 piston on the rears, plus 5 braided lines:

Nice. Wow is right. We considered doing that too on our F250, but needed more truck. When we traded it in 2011 for our current TV, it had 80k miles on it.
