    You see what happened there? This was a clean, innocent conversation about towing until you showed up with your gutter mind!

    Good stuff! Finally went to the new brewery/restaurant. Good food, but I don't like the open seating. The place was packed, and according to my server, that wasn't busy for them.

    You were in town and didn't stop by...phhfff!
    The beer hall concept is cool but if you just there with one other person its a bit awkward, so I know what you mean. We usually go to the bar if we can.

    I have the 3.5 ecoboost and get an average of 19-20 mpg (summer). Have my fun in the truck, but do not have a lead foot by any means. One of my old coworkers had the same engine and got 13 mpg....but drove it like he stole it.

    My neighbor has an eco-boost F-150. It's pretty fast when being towed.

    Was it really about towing? I'm too lazy to go back and read

    It actually was. John asked how to determine the appropriate ball size for a trailer. We're only ever one misinterpretation from the gutter anyways though.

    Nope, focus was squarely on balls. Then Erik told us his were interchangeable :eek:

    Always have to have the right sized ball for the tongue you're working with.

    Don't mean to cut out the ball talk, but I need an honest opinion. Should I completely lift my truck more than it already is? I'm thinking about putting the 5100's at .85 and getting an icon progressive AAL (per suggestion from @tacobell007) in addition to the factory 4 leaf pack. Those of you that have AAL's, does it severely impact the ride? Am I better off just getting a completely new leaf pack?

    The progressives ride pretty well (at least on my dad's DCLB with my TSB packs) I think overall new leafs will ride about the same or maybe slightly better once broken in. Both will help stiffen the ride up some.
