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....

My FW (see sig below) has knock outs for a genny but I never looked into what brand/size. Installing one would certainly push me over my payload.
As far as towing a FW with an EB; sure I get 10-12 towing but I also get 18-22 when not towing. And that all depends how I drive it. I had to haul aurse from Junction to San Antonio doing 85 yesterday and I got 18.4mpg doing it. I can't complain.
My son also has the 2011, and it is awesome towing a 24 foot boat, does a great job. No complaints from him. years ago towed a 18 foot boat with single axle trailer with a chev 350, no comparison to the newer trucks, was lucky to get 8-10 mpg, and 25-30 mph up mountain grades. That newer ford rolls over those same grades
