- Tool boxes or beds setup for towing and plenty of storage for tools and gear.--i have a tool box with straps chain come-a-long etc
- Heavy duty hitches- 2.5" reese, gooseneck ball
- Dual rear wheels (some exceptions)-yup
- Overload springs, air assist or air ride-yup
- Creature comforts, plush seats, cruise control, sound insulation ect.a couple things, not much other than a nice stereo and xm satellite i like a spartan interior
- 10,000 GVWR or greater.-rated at 10k
- CB/HAM radios-40 channel cobra
- Navigation systems-truckers atlas under the seat, google maps on my phone
- Truck/Trailer painted to match. -too many things to tow to match paint
That is the list I have, you all have any more suggestions?
