    I posted a pic of my AT4 pulling my loaded toyhauler, loaded about 7800lb on the scales, Sits and rides nice with a blue ox sway pro setup. I get a little sway with passing cars but the truck pulls it over the blueridge with no issues. I don't have a pic on this machine will post later but here is link to my other post.

    I looked at the anderson but heard it didn't shift much weight, especially on heavy trailers. I'm towing a toy hauler 7500lbs packed and use a blue ox sway pro. I love it, easy to put on and adjust, clean, quiet, and really helps to shift the weight back to the front and no sway issues so far. Another option I hear good things on is the equalizer 4pt, but no experience with it.

    I had the cognitos on my 17, no problems, the bushings were quiet and lube'able. The ball joints were easy to change (4 bolts) and each had a zerk fitting.

    I'm towing with the 24 gal tank as well and is sticks. Luckily the trailer has a 40gallon fuel tank so I'm not stranded but man 24 gal is really small for a full size.

    Here is my toy hauler, Stealth 2313. About everything the truck can tow but under limits at the cat scales. Blue ox weight distribution hitch, pulls fine at 70 over and around the Blue Ridge Mtns. Having fun so far.

    I had the icons on my 17 and loved them, not stiff at all. The truck felt soooo much more controlled overall. I only towed a 14' enclosed trailer with it, but never had any issues.

    Yeah, I would have sworn it was a loose connection or something. It went from an intermittent problem with not seeing the nav card to full time not reading the nav card and none of the usb/c ports working. Work order says they applied an software upgrade and everything has been working since. I have noticed that if I use bluetooth to stream podcast I get some skipping for 5-10 sec after I put the phone on the wireless charger since the update but otherwise ports and nav now work.

    I had the same problem. Took it in and they said I needed a software update. Everything works now.

    My 17 was the siren red tincoat, I loved that color.

    My steering wheel doesn't get as warm where the spokes meet the wheel 8-10 and 2-4 but the rest gets nice and toasty.

    Mine comes on when I turn on the rear bed lights (next to the upper brake light) pretty handy when playing with the trailer at night.

    And it's pouring rain right now.

    I want to update and say mine is still not leaking, but I'm afraid I'll jinx myself. So I will not say anything.

    has to be the half axles, Had fabtech on my toyota and the shocks were great, but the support was lacking.
  15. bowtie76
    No tech package on mine. I got the analog gages and the small screen in the middle. Sometimes think about upgrading, would be nice to get nav map on cluster instead of screen in middle of dash.

    I had the five years for free on my 17. Great for starting the truck from a distance to get it warm when you get too it. The range on the fob doesn't reach very far. That said I'm not paying for it on the new 2020. Will see how much I miss it this winter after skiing all day.

    Agreed the relearn tool is cheep and works great

    I installed my sensors myself. Just break the bead on one side and you can reach in and install the new valve/sensor.

    They are not the only ones... Why get into politics on a truck forum about gears?
  20. bowtie76
    Damn, forgot how good looking these are, I need to go out and wash mine so it looks this good again!
  21. bowtie76
    defenders are great light snow tires, those look... not so much

    I had a deer run into the side of my truck, just behind front wheel, was over $8000 to get repaired. New trucks are expensive, especially when damage crosses body panels.

    looks like your clip just popped off, give it a shove and should be good to go.
  24. bowtie76
    I thought my 17 Z71 was WAY BETTER LOOKING exterior, but otherwise my 20 AT4 is the better truck.

    Definitely wish we could have a bigger gas tank.
