Thanks for great post, I sold my HD dodge not long ago and now use a 2015 super crew 5.0 F150 with a 8 foot marathon for my sled and quad. For comparison if anyone is wondering how it stacks up against other trucks Truck+full tank of fuel+deck and ramp+ me and maybe 200lbs of stuff weighed in...

The payload on the 2015 F150 with the 5.0 is rated at 2606 so like I said you are close

How do I get those numbers I can get the axle weight off the truck isn't that combined the same as GVWR???

OK boys I put my 2015 5.0L F150 super crew on the scales, it has the 36 gal fuel tank, fairly heavy sled deck. box full of junk maybe around 200lbs and 2 people.

Yes Cowboy basin, but the name Mears lake is steeped in tradition and for good reason so Mears Lake is what it is. Historically we have called the basins and the flats Mears Lake. I will try and straighten FS out but he is old and stubborn unlike his younger more agreeable riding partner :p

Sorry Pawel don't come on here much it's up behind Mears Lake

Next snowfall is going to reek havoc above tree line, high sustained winds have made a dandy wind crust, my partner released a nice slab yesterday even though he was in an area of high potential but low risk it still woke him up a bit. Anywhere above treeline has very little coverage and is...
