2011 Ford Super duty 6.2 3.73 tow 10k+?
Hi everyone, My wife and I bought a toyhauler and are looking to upgrade our truck. We have a 09 f250 crew cab short bed with the 5.4 and 4.10 gears. It pulled our former 27 ft travel trailer well ...

Congrats on the new truck!! That is a nice color combo (not inc green), and with the low miles, it is just broke in. At least with the 2-wheel drive, you could switch the gears, if needed, but don't think you'll feel the need.
Happy hauling,
Jerry
Thanks. I like the 2 tones as well. I will paint the cab maroon (ford calls it royal red metallic) but its far to cold since my garage isnt heated. So far 3.73 rear has surpriced me. Empty it will cruise around just off 1k rpm and does fine. It seems to have good torque at most rpm. Time will tell when I get some seat time with a trailer. Anyone know if there is a break in period? I read somewhere you shouldn't tow heavy until it has 5k miles on it but im not sure if it was even for a ford. I couldnt find anything in the owners manual.
