If you get the Heavy Duty payload package then it's possible you won't be white knuckling all the time.
If you just get the Max Trailer Tow in a Super Crew 145" WB then good luck.
The Max Trailer Tow Package does nothing to make the truck more stable. It's just a bunch of added options for trailering.
• 3.55 Electronic-locking rear-axle
• 4-pin/7-pin wiring harness
• 36 Gallon fuel tank
• Auxiliary transmission oil cooler
• Engine oil cooler
• Class IV trailer hitch receiver

• Smart Trailer Tow Connector (standard on LARIAT and higher)
• Integrated Trailer Brake Controller
• Upgraded front stabilizer bar
• Upgraded rear bumper
