    Travel trailer towing and recommend hitch

    If you want to be as safe as possible; check ProPride 3P. Expensive! Yes, new about$3300. But your vehicle & TT are also expensive. This hitch ELIMINATES SWAY. Do some research on it and judge for yourself.

    Taking bets - lets see who wins armchair diagnosis!

    Last spring (2023), I had the same thing happen. At a stop light, and when I started driving it was just limping forward and showed the "check engine light". Pulled over and shut the engine down, let it sit for 5 min and started up again. Never had the same issue again, so far. I also ran...

    Can somebody post their video of what this noice is which forces the change. I did have the service recall done; however, I’m not a mechanic and not sure what it is I’m listening for. Thanx.

    How many owners out there with no major issues?

    100%. Beyond me why Ford doesn’t do this or GM Brings back the Suburban 2500!‍♂️

    Am I pushing payload capacity too much?

    Each to their own. However, if the numbers posted by FORD was dangerous, I highly doubt they would have certified it and much less posted these numbers for liability reasons. Does it create more wear compared to a lighter trailer or no trailer? Off course it does. But don’t tell me they...

    Am I pushing payload capacity too much?

    The only Large SUV that I remember having both high tow and payload capacity was the Suburban 2500.

    Anyone regret going to LT Load E tires?

    Use the different calculators on this site to check for speedometer errors, rolling distance, gear ratio, etc. https://tiresize.com/wheel-offset-calculator/ I went from stock Michelin 275/65-18 to 275/55-20 Coopers XL https://coopertire.com/en-us/find-tires/all-tires/discoverer-at3-4s 2 years...

    2022 XLT with special edition package

    I have a 2019 XLT with the Active-X (heated and cooled), I had real leather (heated and cooled) in my previous Expy EL Eddie Bauer. And to be honest, I prefer the Active-X. It dosn't get as sticky as the leather and stays softer in the winter.

    Traded the Expedition today

    Panoramic sunroofs are heavy. I specifically did not want that because of the weight. 2019 XLT MAX 4x4 W/HD tow and payload of 1798.

    Help this Mamma

    Does the Suburban have any higher payload??? I know when I was looking, the Expedition / Exp Max was the Vehicle I found with the highest payload/max axle/tongue/ and tow capacity.

    Help this Mamma

    I know this post is a few month old. However, be careful to buy a large SUV before you see all number and are aware of what you can carry in the vehicle and tow. I have a Expedition Max with 1796lbs payload and with 3 kids 2 adults and 2 dogs, I am pretty much at the limit of my payload and Max...

    Air Bag Suspension and / or Rear Seay Bar Upgrade

    Certainly does not feel and act that way.

    Air Bag Suspension and / or Rear Seay Bar Upgrade

    I went from the stock Micheline tires 275*65 18" to Cooper XL load rating: 275*55 20" got new rims which sits a little bit further out and are 1" wider than stock rim. It made a huge improvement in stability, especially when I'm towing my Passport 2950 (about 6800-7000 Lbs loaded).

    PCM reprogramming.

    I just had my 2019 Exp at the dealer ship for the recall 21N10. I noticed when I got home and looked at the odometer reading In & Out from the dealership was the same! I was under the impression that they had to do a test drive with a laptop hooked up to verify that the problem had been...

    Tires for towing XL vs E load range.

    I changed from stock Micheline Primacy to Cooper XL tires. I did not go with E load due to cost and weight of E tires compared to XL. I increased the rim with by 0.5" and went from 275/65-18 to 275/55-20, much better towing experience. Didn't see any measurable difference in fuel burn...

    275/70 R18 on stock suspension

    Not yet. But I’ll be installing at least the rear Hellwig sway bars in the spring. Mainly because of towing stability.

    Big difference. Much more stable and no wobbly feeling when taking corners. I also went with a 9” rim with vs 8.5 from Ford. Use this calculator to figure out what works. https://tiresize.com/calculator/
