For those of you that have the OE Tow Command..have you found a "comfort" setting as to aggressivness..I'm pulling a 10# fifth-wheel (F250 Ext.Cab SRW)..seems a setting of 7.5 works pretty well..but I could not find anything in the Owner's manual as to a "Start out and see Setting"...
Thanks for the help [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]
Pulling a 32' gooseneck horse trailer, I am using 2.5 empty and 4-5 loaded. Anything over these numbers results in the trailer bucking. Must add that the factory system is awesome. Mike

Turn to page 172 of your basic manual. The suggested initial setting is 6.

pulling a 33' 5th wheel RV,, have tired varous settings from 2 through the max,, ended up running in the 7 to 7.5 area and have found that to offer the smoothest stopping,, that is with a tad over 6,000 miles of tugging with the new 2005,,
even wife has commented on how smooth the new truck handles the fiver compared to the old set-up on the 2003 F250 7.3,,
