Everyone is assuming the engine blew but we don't know for sure what happened. And I seriously doubt the engine was "working over time max weight every mile".

My setup towing my stacker trailer weights 26,500lbs and in the mountains its working hard and I feel that's pretty close to max even though Ford says it can handle 30,000lbs max
Running max all the time puts to much strain on the drive train.
Just my 2 cents
