I already do 90% of the cooking. Guess I'm doing it right. The cooking must be OK too

here's the secret. Instead of trying to convince everyone how much you can tow with your Ecoboost, convince your wife how much truck you need to safely to the 5th wheel she wants.

Beautiful truck! You're gonna love it. The big dually's don't get TPMS from Ford. I have the TST TPMS on my truck and 5th wheel and glad I do. The sensor on the inner left dual quit working a while ago and I procrastinated on getting it fixed. While towing the 5er one day, the outer left dual indicated high temperature. I stopped to check things out and found the inner left had a 1/4" bolt stuck in it and no air pressure. The outer dual was carrying all the weight. If I didn't have the TPMS, the outer tire probably would have had a blowout. So, what's the odds that the only tire out of 6 without a working sensor would be the one to get punctured? LOL!

Dave, quick question, My wife also just bought me one of these..hehe.. It's an XLT. My Tow capacity is the same as yours but the Payload on mine states 5569. Just wondering how yours is that much higher if you know.


Great looking truck by the way.

My guess would be that you have the 13,000 GVRW and not the 14,000 GVRW option.

I will have to look at door sticker. I'm just quoting from the brochure, but I know it does have every suspension option available.

Difference could be in the factory gooseneck set up if you have it.

No factory gooseneck setup on mine. Just regular tow package. Not really worried about it. I'm sure 5569 is plenty. Was just curious.

I do have that. Luckily I can still use my Curt hitch, just need to get new supports to go with the factory pucks.
