Max Trailer Wt. Recommendations for F-150 5L or Eco/Boost

Seems to me the even bigger benefit of the EcoBoost is when yhou're pulling in the mountains of the western US. That turbo charged engine should lose a lot less pulling power than any non turbo gas engine.

The 5.0L is good for 380 lb-ft at 4,250 rpm, while the EcoBoost puts out 420 lb-ft at 2,500 rpm and is quicker 0-60...even with the alleged turbo lag it has more get get up and go than the 5.0.
