Ford F-150 as a toad?
Anybody using one of the new F-150's as a toad? I currently have a 2006 Dodge Dakota as a toad. It's been a good truck but I'm looking at replacing it. It is a fairly heavy toad but my 35 foot DP ...

I am the OP. I concluded that the F-150 is probably a good toad for a large DP with a 400+ hp engine, but probably not so good for my 35 footer with a 330 hp engine. Especially since I live in California and we have mountains here.
Approx. 10 HP/foot is the criteria that many use for not having a dog, so you're pretty close. The torque required usually comes with it. Still, there's many out there on the road with less and they do just fine, expect for winning the trophy, as King of the Mountain.
We have a F-150 that I'd like towing as well, but it's a 2 x 4 and if I'd have thought this back then, would have gotten a 4 x 4.
