Advice on Ford F150 Ecoboost
Today I have a 1/2 ton Yukon XL Denali AWD. It does ok with my 6000lb lightweight TT here in the midwest but I dont really trust it across country and my tranny is getting close to needing replaced. ...

I had a 2013 F-150 Max Tow when we bought our trailer which is almost 35'-0" bumper to ball and 9,500lbs +/- when loaded up. My thoughts on it as follows:
The truck had plenty of power to pull the weight, that was a non-factor.
The trailer is high profile and about 11'-6" tall, the wind on open highways would tend to push the lighter truck around.
On secondary roads and roads with little to no wind, it towed like a dream.
Upgraded to the truck in my signature and have not regretted it with my trailer.
A foreman of mine got the hand-me-down truck and uses it to tow a 7,000lb enclosed utility trailer around and loves it.
I might still be using it if I had a lower profile, less brick wall of a trailer.
