F-150 Ecoboost, built in generator
So, this maybe an "FW too far." I am enamored of the F150 ecoboost. 11,000 pound towing capacity, and from what I've read, plenty of power. The tricky part would be hitch weight, under 1200 pounds....

Sure these new gas engines won't handle the weight of big fifth wheels, but some like donn have no idea how they perform, and they were not built to tow big fifth wheels, but it would be crazy to go out and get a big old dually diesel, when some of these newer gas engines will get the job done very nicely given the weight range they handle. All you have to do is drive one to realize they are very capable . Hell we have a 2013 Ford Escape 4 cylinder with the EB, that will run circles around donn's old dually in acceleration . :)
To make it fair let's put a trailer behind each and then see what happens
Did I not say acceleration, kind of comparing apples ,and oranges when towing, Just trying to point out pound for pound what they are rated for the EB gets the job done, of course it won't tow a large fifth wheel they aren't built to.
