We tow about the same weight with a 1500 Suburban. Its ok. The 5.4 Expedition is a better TV I think, as far as power goes. The Suburban chassis is great. The 5.3 makes its power at higher rpms, as does the 5.4 Im sure. That takes a little getting use to for me. We came from a motorhome that had a 454 and it was a real powerhouse. We have some good friends that tow with a 2012 Expedition XL. Their trailer is heavier and they have pulled it literally over most of the US. He says it does great. My next TV might very well be an Expedition.
