Advisability and Experience with F-150 3.5L w/EcoBoost

I had ~1850 lbs payload in my SCrew 4x4 Max-Tow... I think you'll do fine if you found a truck with that on it (unless you're going to haul a bunch of stuff in the truck too). I can't remember what the receiver rating is on these trucks, but you could be approaching 1200 lbs TW.
