Hello All,
I have a 1997 Ford Expedition 4x4 and it has the HD towing package. I have the smaller of the two V8's that we're available on my model (4.6 litre).
I tow my 6-1/2 x 12 Utility trailer loaded down without issue to the Desert and back. I am looking into moving up to a Toy Hauler. 19 - 23 foot range. My gross weight for my Expy is 11,000 pounds.
Was wondering if a 23 foot Toy Hauler be ok for me to pull safely? I would get the Weight Distribution hitch for sure.
Your thoughts?
You forgot my TH example specs.
