Is there anything to think about when towing with a slightly lifted truck. With any type of trailer, GN, 5th, or bumper pull. Just wondering before i decide to purchase a F250 that is factory lifted. Thanks

Conventional towing there should be no problem with the proper drops in your draw bars. 5th wheel and GN may cause a problem with bed and tailgate clearances.

Don't forget you lose some towing capacity with a big drop bar and that your lift springs are probably softer than stock so what you're pulling will bounce you around more. Then you also probably have bigger tires so you're stopping distances are likely increased as well.
