I see all these old towing pics and wonder how they did it? 1974-85 engines and quality were even worse.
1973 Ford 250, 460CI, 245hp/340tq, 4260lbs towing a 3500lbs airstream.
2012 Lincoln MKX 226CI, 305hp/280tq, 4251lbs...better brakes, suspension...actually better everything than '73.
The Mustang 2900lbs, maverick 2900lbs probably had the 302CI 141hp/241tq towing 1400-1800lb campers.
I'm not trying to be difficult. I just don't see what I'm missing for trying to tow 1200lbs (around 1500lbs total). I think it'll be pretty easy.
Thanks for everyone's posts.
