My truck does have AWD. In 2011, Ford had three 4-wheel drive transfer cases:
- Borg-Warner 4418 manual shift transfer case. (XL's?)
- Borg-Warner 4419 electronic shift transfer case.
- Borg-Warner one-speed torque-on-demand (TOD) transfer case. (Lariat Limited, HD)
So I have 4x2, AWD, 4x4 high.
In 2012, the TOD transfer case added 4L, so those trucks had 4x2, 4Auto, 4x4 high, 4x4 low.
That's a nice truck. Really can't imagine a problem with only 7K trailer, although stiffening the suspension, LT-E tries and a good WDH will all help.
A guy on another forum had a heavier trailer, but liked his half-ton so much he got a TrailerToad and swears by it.
