Anyone tried towing with what appears to be the current standard Ford engine? I know how everyone raves about the turbo models, but how about the majority of F-150's on the lot? Thinking of towing something under 5,000 total weight with one.
Not over 5,000 gross weight? Ha. You're in mid-size SUV territory. A longer wheel base pick up is all that much better.
If you only tow occasionally, and you don't mind rev'ing the motor when it wants to rev, then you're good. High RPM does NOT mean death for your engine. Don't believe the nay-say.
