Wow. So now everybody thinks 290 horsepower can't pull 3,500 pounds????
That's more horsepower than the original Triton V10 made!
Sure, the turbo motors are far superior, but I don't think that part of the question.
OP - You'll be fine. It'll be spinning fast at times and you won't be able to tow in 6th gear, but it'll get the job done easily.
Agree. It will work. but you will know it is there. But then if truth were told. Everybody knows it when they hook up.
Only a 6 speed? Horror of horrors. Y'all would never have made it towing trailer with a 3 speed. BTW. they worked VERY well. 6 is plenty, actually more than enough. As mentioned. lock out 6th, and let it run. It will be much happier running in 5th closer to it's power band, and not lugging.
