How to find tow rating of an F150?
I'm shopping for a used F150. Can someone please explain the easiest method of finding the actual tow rating for an individual truck? I know I can find the axle ratio and payload capacity on the doo...

That's where we're at, at this stage of the conversation.
Details don't matter....OP just want's assurance that it's "enough."
Back to detailed recommendations. The 5.0 Coyote engine and the 5.3 LS have nearly identical hp and torque curves. Still a 40+ hp power advantage to a new 5.0 over the OP's 5.3.
The rest is basically the same, apples to apples, as well.
Now back when the Coyote engine was new, it was top of the heap for little small blocks. 2011 F150 5.0, 6 speed blew the doors off of a 5.3 GM. Noticeably better.
