I have been pretty happy with my 2010 F150. It has taken us across the country, with little issue towing a 7400# trailer. The issues started this year. The pinion seal has been replaced three times...
Smart move getting the HD payload package. With a trailer the size of yours and even a moderate load in the bed you could easily max out most half ton trucks. Nice to see that Ford is offering the HD package in a shorter bed truck. congratulations on the new truck / Skip
