looking at a 2013 f150 ecoboost 50k to replace my Jeep Grand Cherokee, I pull a 2015 Viking fq, weight is around 3800 hitch weight is around 400. Jeep does very good pulling just want a little more power, will the ford do it? what should I look for as far as problems on this truck? thanks
Loved my 2011 3.5L Ecoboost.
Zero problems, but was pulling over 8000# and overloaded the rear axle and hitch receiver. So went bigger when the drive train warranty expired.
At 50K miles, I wouldn't expect any problems as long as the truck has been well maintained.
And yes the tow package with integrated brake controller is worth it.
