It pulled fine actually, probably because we didn't know any different. But, trailer rode much better after the...

Ultimately, I read the instructions made a call to the factory support line.....and in about an hour I had re-set the hitch. A couple of trips to...

    24’ expedition ride quality

    2021 limited here. Rides beautiful. I can indeed compare it to four different 2024 f150's that dealer gave as loaners. Expedition was in for misc warranty work. I'll take the expy ride over any of the f150's. 22" on Michelin Defenders with CCD
