Max tow pkg is a good start. Combined with the MAX payload (7500 # GVWR) and fac. tow mirrors you have the golden unicorn of F 150s. I have never seen such a beast as a stock unit on a dealers lot. Only special ordered. Altho lots of Max Tow stock units are stocked. One would think a Max Tow equipped PU would have Fac. tow mirrors as well but they don't order them that way.?
FWIW, If you KNOW you are going to stay under 5k for a TT, don't over look the Ridgeline.
It dose not sound like you have the TT picked out yet. If not, the best piece of advice is to find the TT you want and then the TW so you can match the TV to what the TT weighs.
Thanks for the advice. At this point, we've been trailer-less for 5 years because I can't find a TV that works as a daily driver. Hubby and I have made peace that we will just tow whatever we are able with a more gas-friendly TV. If it's a pop-up, so be it. We love cooking and hanging out outdoors anyway, so I don't ever see us with a huge TT anyway. Trying to find a happy medium. Gas prices in Cali are just too much to drive a gas-hog.
