I fully intend to purchase an xls17mke Imagine. I have seen many videos on YouTube and I have a Ford F-150 with suspension enhancement. But I would like to know about heated liquid drain pipes and tanks that are kept at room temperature. Are they special order, standard or aftermarket? If none of the above what kind of modification? Would it weigh my F-150 down too much?

The concern with pulling with a F150, xls17mke Imagine spec sheet says GVWR is around 6400 lbs. Most years F150 is rated to pull that, but without specific pickup information can't tell for sure.

In addition to what others have said, the Imagine line has an enclosed underbelly (where plumbing and tanks are) - but it is not well insulated. The imagine also lacks tank heaters. Under these circumstances, the main propane furnace must be used as it is ducted to the underbelly to keep things from freezing down there.
Can you tell us what all the weight ratings are (GVWR, GCVWR, front and rear axle ratings, payload, etc.) from the door sticker on your truck?
