Tow 2109S with F150 3.7L

Just wondering if anyone has towed a Forest River Rockwood MINI LITE 2109S with a Ford F150 3.7L engine. How does it tow?

I don't know about the F150 but I towed mine with a Honda Ridgeline with a 3.6L and 4.53 gear. It did okay but never went for a really long multiday towing trip with it.

Hi CoyoteCasper I have a 2014 super crew F150 3.5 EcoBoost v6 and we just purchased the 2109S in November and we took it out just once and had no problem pulling it and had plenty of power.

Big difference in a naturally aspirated V6 and a Twin Turbo V6.

I've pulled a MiniLite 2306 short distances with an old 4.6L, which is probably similar in power to your newer V6, and had no issues. I think it would do fine. It's going to drop gears and rev on inclines.

You can say that again. Not even the same Universe.
