Page 18 of the Ford 2018 Trailer Tow Guide does NOT recommend towing with a 2.7L 4x2 SuperCrew with 3.55 (note the dashes in the boxes). 4x4 is limited to 7,600 lbs and only on the 145" wheel base version.
With a 3.73 rear axle that jumps to 8,100 lbs (either wheel base) but I would want the Trailer Tow Package and the 2.7L EcoBoost Payload Package.
The Trailer Package Includes:
3.15
• 4-pin/7-pin wiring harness
• Auxiliary transmission oil cooler
• Class IV trailer hitch receiver
• Pro Trailer Backup Assist
• Tailgate LED
• Smart Trailer Tow Connector
• Upgraded front stabilizer bar
Concur on the trailer package.
One possible meaning of the "-" in the 2017 guide you link to is the 4X2, 2.7, 3.55, CC combo was not offered as an option in 2017. Otherwise the dashes don't make much sense. Think about it, look at the Table, a given configuration at XX,XXX GCWR can tow Y,YYY pounds but the same configuration at a GCWR of XX,XXX + 100 has a "-". Does this mean it is not recommended to tow anything? I suspect it means that combination was not offered that year.
I think a more probable interpretation is the combination of an F150, 4X2, CC, 2.7, 3.55 was not offered in 2017 hence the "-". In 2018 it was offered hence the 7700.
