Yes, but none of those changes besides weight will effect its tow rating going by the J2807 test standards which is what I was talking about before you butted in the conversation and took it way off track.

Apparently Ford did make changes, as in adding aux transmission cooler to plain tow package which is REQUIRED to tow up to 11,100. To go above that you need Max Tow.

The Davis Dam portion of the J2807 must be conducted with temp at staring point of at least 100 degrees with AC on full set to coldest setting. Yeah, extra cooling does factor in to the 2807.

Not to say that GM and Dodge are innocent but Ford bends the rules more.

Hypocrisy annoys me, people need to look into mirrors. Let me hold a mirror in front of your face.

That is silly. Everyone knows that trolls do not have a reflection.

If the 2011-2014 F150 couldn't handle more weight than the 9,800 lbs that the Ecoboost 3.55 was rated at then why was the exact same truck (frame and all), but with a 3.73 gear, rated for 11,300 lbs?

11-14 F150 with 11,300lbs towing needs either max payload or max towing package.

"The HD Payload Package and Max Tow Package BOTH include the following:
- Select-Shift Transmission (since the HD package automatically includes the Trailer Towing package, at least in Canada it does)
- Class IV hitch
- 7-pin wiring harness
- Super Engine Cooling
- Auxiliary Transmission Oil Cooler"

Your 3.55 Ecoboost does not have the oboe options that increase trailer towing capacity on the 11-14 f150.

Flashgordan appears to be Butthurt... Please fill out form and report to this committee.

I take it that you have a thick pad of those forms close at hand! Or is it a full case of pads?
