Need any towing around Houston??

[TxDieselKid]

I just got my truck and would like to start towing with it to break it in. Problem is that I have nothing to haul. I'm not trying to get paid, just break in the engine. So if anybody around the Houston area has anything that they need to haul, please e-mail me. Hay, camper home form the dealer, whatever the case I'll be happy to do it, and I will pay for the gas, I mean fuel (still getting use to that ). I'd probly end up buying you dinner, if you don't mind eating with a kid (21).



I have a class IV reviver hitch, and no 5ver if this helps.



Thanks for the time,

AJB

Load the bed?

I wonder if you can just load up the bed with heavy things and cruise around to help break it in?

 

[Alan Reagan]

Yeah. Actually, you can just get out and ride at varying speeds. Loading helps the components seat faster. Climbing hills, coasting, cruising all do part of the job. Just hooking up to a 2000 lb trailer and pulling it around will make things seat. But you don't have to add weight or pull. It's faster if you do.

that would be great but....

Alan,



Thanks for that web site, it looks great if it were the begianing of the summer, and I was 25. Maybe something I'll have to look in to in a couple of years.



I've heard stories about people going to Home Depo and buying about 10 bags of 80 pound councrete, and running around with it in there bed for 3 months, then takeing it back with the recipt. Problem is coming up with the $$$ to do this. After the cost of the truck, and college (no loan yet, don't want to), it's hard to come up with that extra cash.
