the Screw putting in work!
had to cut down 41 trees in the past 3 days and its been tough work on me and my truck. Hauling loads with 25,000+ pounds. driving in and out of the woods. pulling whole trees out into the open so they can be cut and loaded.. My Ford put in work and did its job. This is just a poser pic. ha.

yeah.. i didnt say i towed 25k while running the baja 1000. i travelled at 20mph and the dual axles of the trailer handled the majority of the weight. i tried to even the load as much as i could without putting too much on my hitch or on the back of the trailer. handled the load pretty well i think..

tires are great for the mud and grip well on wet ground without spinning, but are wearing down rediculously fast! i have about 8k on them now and i dont see them lasting past 10k. going with different ones next time around..

Oh I have no problem believing you did it, but I don't think you were towing anywhere near 25k.
