    Hey guys, new to the forum, I followed Dave from DB Truck Customs here after being on a bunch of other truck and mustang forums

    Coming here with a question already! I have an 06 f350 dump truck that I pull a 13k lb trailer with (22k lbs combination)
    The truck has a 6.0 and 3.73s and manual trans so it gets its workout
    I'm curious what the safe redline is? I have red 4100-4500 rpm but the truck seems pretty wound out at 2500-2700 rpm ( I'm used to a 3,000 rpm redline in our cummins too)

    Any ways, thanks for the help and I look forward to learning some new things around here!

    :welcome: Stangshcky12
    4100-4500 does seem a little high,
    I've only driven one 6.0, my brother-in-law's
    F250 Amarillo.
