New F-150 with 13,200 lb tow rating!

As for the larger brakes...'one' reason is that today's TV's comes with larger dia wheels/tires...which has a higher centrifugal force that dictates higher braking performance. Older era TV's could skid their tires too...but larger brakes does increase the duty rating and increases the modulation curve for braking, a very good thing
