First RV tow with EcoD
Well it's not my first time but it is with the Eco-diesel. Was only about 30+ miles and all in the mountains around Knoxville Tn with some very step twisty grades. The travel trailer was a 25' weighin...

Good to hear that your truck meets your expectations!
Although I have found out a long time ago that not everyone's towing expectations are the same. It was right before I bought my old F150 with a 5.4L and was eyeing a 4.6L to save fuel for my long commute. A cousin of mine had an F150 with a 4.6L and he assured me that it would tow whatever I needed to just fine with no issues. I was a bit skeptical so I invited him to the coast with me so he can show me how well his 4.6L would pull my RV. His truck was screaming the whole way and barely able to do 55 mph yet he had a big ole smile on his face and commenting on how well she was towing. To him, that was perfectly acceptable. To me.....not so much which is why there was a brand new F150 with a 5.4L in my driveway the following week.
