A 40 foot Voltage 5th wheel toy hauler will weigh in at right around 20... Those toy haulers arent light.. They usually out weigh the regular campers by atleast 5k.. Example is a 40 foot Redwood will weigh in at around 14k.. Same length toy hauler Voltage will weigh in at around 19 or 20.. And you dont have a whole lot of room for toys neither..

Think about motorcycle toy haulers, then look at the professional tractor racers trailers lol!...


On another side, a friend (who happens to be the parts store manager) dropped a part off for me today, and brought his 2004 Ford F250 Triton V10 truck over. Man them Triton V10s are cool sounding and smooth. Not a hiccup!

They are also turds.. Dont have a whole lot going for them but a little bit of torque.. I wouldnt ever own one even if I was a ford guy.

I wouldn't plan on owning a V10 either, Ford or Dodge.

Having said that we used to have a '98 F250 5.4L V8, that thing has loads of power, kinda puts my 360 to shame...

^ Haha our 460 would lay it down hands flat... I don't intend on getting a V10 anytime soon. Right now I'm intent on getting a IDI V8 diesel and turboing it

i swear some people are so full of crap. i met up with someone that was selling a carb that was suppose to be a 390 cfm holley about a week ago. he said it was brand new and was only asking $250 which would be a good deal. apparently the carb is about 10 years old but never used and it was kind of showing its age(which he didn't tell me in any of the emails or his ad). when i met up with him i looked at the numbers on the horn which pretty much tell you everything about the carb and they didn't look right. i quickly looked the numbers up on my phone and apparently it is not a 390cfm holley. it is a 600cfm holley. i told him i could not buy it since the numbers were disagreeing with what he was telling me so i had to walk away. fast forward to today i get a email from the same guy telling me that he has managed to confirm that it is a 390cfm carb. i know from the Holley Carburetor Numerical Listings pdf on pirate4x4 that it is a 600cfm carb. no mistaking the numbers on the horn so i emailed him back that the numbers on the horn don't lie. it makes me wonder how the hell he managed to confirm that it is a 390cfm carb? you just enter the numbers in google with the name Holley and you get a crap load of search results that tell you what it is and lots of pics that look like the exact same carb.

but there is a 390cfm carb and i was specifically searching for one and it sounded like he had the right carb since he said it was originally going to go on a 4.2L jeep.
