Ford F-150 5.0 V8 Towing
I have a 30 ft TT at #7100 wet. I am looking at a 2013 F150 XLT 4x4 Supercrew with the 5.0 v8. How is this truck for towing Thanks George

I had a similar set-up. The power was great, no problem there, transmission in tow/haul mode works perfect, rev that engine and you've got all the power you need. (3.73 gears)
I recently switched to a 3/4 ton because I was constantly adding/upgrading components and playing with my WDH. The suspension just wasn't where I wanted it to be, it just always felt mushy and I couldn't get rid of the constant porpoising. I also hated playing the payload game, I had a 1500lbs payload and I basically couldn't load anything in the box of my truck due to tongue weight+ family+ canopy+ dog.
