I believe it has the Ford Triton V10 and while I had a van with this motor, I want to ensure it can tow an 18 ft enclosed trailer.
I used to tow a 20ft enclosed trailer with my F-250 (V-10), it was probably 2k lbs empty :h
So, if your enclosed trailer is less 5k lbs LOADED, you will be fine due to the stock CLASS III hitch. My TOAD (see sig) is around the 5k range, I have to keep looking in the backup camera monitor to make sure it's still there.:E
Good luck with your decision.
This is dangerous information. Just because the hitch is rated at 5k# does not mean you can tow 5k#. It depends on the various weights included in the capacity. Some have a very slim margain when it's all said and done. You need to do the math to figure what you can tow safely.
