Any Experience with Ford Tow Haul Feature
TV here is a 2013 Expedition with the 5.4 and six speed auto transmission. We pulled our flatbed 1600 miles with total weight of 3500 pounds. DW did the vast majority of the driving and complained...

Your experience sounds similar to mine. I actually usually avoid tow-haul mode going down grades for this very reason. I also leave it off if the road is level and flat.
If I am in a situation where I am going up/down lots of small grades I often leave it engaged the entire time.
Why in the world would you avoid TH on downgrades? That is the best feature on my V-10 5 speed tranny. I can cruise down a ten + mile 6-8% grade and not only never touch the brake pedal and I am burnng Zero, Zip, Nada gas!
Uphill it changes the shift points to more eficent moments, that towhaul is smarter than you or me and you should use it often.
