Nice looking truck! So that's a double cab and 6.6 bed? Not that different the 5.0 and 21 as far as what kind of mileage to expect I think. Thanks for sharing.

The 2023 in Maryland turned out to be a 5.5' bed even though they told us it has a 6.6" bed.

We have the same truck, but an 02, it's great truck and super reliable, ours now has just over 200K on it. But that's not the reason for wanting to up grade to a newer truck. The 4.7L V8 is perfectly...

I looked at it closer, the first picture you can see a big set screw that would go into an indent in the base, I think E-trailer just set it up funny.

Yes it looks like a nice compact design and...

The Recon looks good, looks like smaller footprint than the Anderson. I'm not sure how it works though did you look at the pictures?

Yes, $400 to $600 cheaper, the lowest price I'm seeing for the Anderson turn over ball hitch is $1,000.
