5th Wheels and F150's
I have a 2011 ecoboost with the 7700 GVWR with payload of 1825lbs and a rear axle rating of 4050lbs. Max tow package with 3:73 ratio. I'm looking at a 2015 Puma 253 FBS 5th wheel that is 27 feet long ...

Well I finally bought a tow vehicle. A 2017 F 150 with the second generation eco boost. Super Cab, 8' box. Max Tow (11,700), HD Payload (2440) and I am extremely pleased. Tows and stops no problem, When I weigh fully loaded I'm 500 lbs under my 4800 lb rear axle rating. And I'm enjoying the excellent gas mileage when I'm not towing. Also, just to mess the weight police up, I occasionally tow my quad behind, but not very often.
Congrats on the new TV! It sounds like you got just what you want. With the 10-speed, you should just be sipping gas, when not towing. Dang those wt popos...you should have no problem double towing that quad. :C
Post a pic of your new truck, or whole rig when you can.
Happy towing,
Jerry
