Am I stretching my ecoboost limits?
I am considering purchasing a new travel trailer soon. Was wondering what you guys think about tow vehicle to trailer. I have a 2011 F150 Ecoboost 3.5 with Max Towing, 3.73, 11200 GTWR, 1897 Payload...

Not to digress from the original post but unless you have the HD pkg that can't be. My truck only has 1700# of pay load in a GVWR of 7700 which the dealer told me was the highest that could be had without ordering the HD pkg of 8200 GVWR. I don't see how a 145" WB with a GVWR of 7650#(the highest I was shown) can have 1800# payload. I must be really missing something.....
The max towing package on crew cab 4WD F-150 means 7650 pound GVWR for 5.5' bed, 7700 pounds for 6.5' beds. Do you think the extra foot of bed weights more or less than the 50 pound GVWR delta? I think it's about 125 pounds, net of 75 pound loss.
Is your truck a no option XL?
