towing

Hey everyone, new 2025 F150 STX 5.0L v8 owner here! Loving the truck so far! This is my first pick up truck coming from a Honda Civic. Radically different machinery here. I’m so impressed.. I knew that these trucks can tow trailers but wasn’t aware of the tow mode until 400 miles into my trip...

I have a 2022 F150 5.0 liter with tow package. The hitch spec sticker is un-readable. Nothing in the owner’s manual tells me the Class of the receiver. I believe Ford put Class IV hitches on these models. Can anyone confirm this for me? I did find some info online and will post a screenshot of...

Hello everyone, I made an oopsie and bought a used 2023 F150 XLT(300A) vehicle without doing a ton of towing research. I do not intend on towing a lot and maybe not at all but I would like to be more aware of my capabilities. Originally I saw online that the 3.5L EB with 3.11 rear axle, 4x2...

Just finished a 2,400-mile RV trip towing a travel trailer (3,000 lbs dry, likely 4,000+ loaded) with a truck bed full of camping gear and two fat-tire e-bikes on a rack above the bed. My wife and I were in the truck. The transmission was replaced at about 16,000 miles (the truck currently has...

Need your expertise and experience regarding if I should do a leveling kit or a lift kit. For a lift, I cannot do higher than 4” due to 7’ garage height clearance. For now, I’m not considering pucks. I do occasional towing of car/truck & heavy loads. Will be towing boats down the road as...

Hi folks - I'd be interested in your experienced thoughts/feedback on towing a 31' 9" travel trailer with my 2021 Lariat. I'm mostly interested in thoughts on the length (31'9") but also the weight 6880 dry/8225 gross. I'm experienced in towing a 28' air stream with a propride AS hitch on a...

I've noticed my engine temp creeps up to 245ish when towing a relatively light trailer (~3000lbs) up any type of grade. In the process the cooling fan is kicked into some kind of super high mode and vibrates like crazy. Enough to get worried looks from the wife and kids. When coming to a stop...

Hello, I will soon be starting a year long journey of full time living in a travel trailer and traveling the US. I have a 2021 F-150 powerboost. I see the built in Ford navigation has a trailer feature to pick routes that I can go on and not take me on a road with height/weight restrictions for...

As title states, now is the time to take care of that suspension sag you have been dealing with.

First post here. Hoping to get some good answers/suggestions from you experienced folks! (TLDR at the bottom) My truck specs (arriving in one week): 2022 F150 XLT 302A 3.5L EB 4DR Max Tow 4x4 I am getting my dealership to install a puck spacer in the front AND possibly a 1.5" larger rear block...

Sorry for the newbie question about towing... but my PowerBoost is my first truck, and I have never towed anything. (Yes... if I do this, I promise to post a warning to the group with my route so that everyone can steer clear!) :-) I am going to be heading East from California soon and I am...

Hello, New here. I purchased a new F-150 last month 2021 XLT 4x4 off road package 3.5 V6. The front bumper is off by 3.5 cm to the left (like it was installed shifted to the left 3.5 cm.) This does not affect function. The main issue I am having is the hitch and rear bumper is lower on the...

Sorry, this is probably a dumb question but I can't seem to find a solid answer anywhere. I have a 2021 F-150 Lariat with the max tow package. I'm getting ready to buy a boat and it's dry weight + trailer is over 5000 pounds. I assume I need to upgrade my Class IV hitch? From what I can see...

I have a Ford F150 XLT 3.5 twin turbo with non power folding mirrors. I pulled off the inside cover and I have a 22 pin plug. My current mirrors which aren't tow mirrors have puddle lamps, blis, turn signals, auxiliary lights and power adjustment. I even have the auxiliary buttons on my dash...

How many other women are choosing an F-150 as their next vehicle? I am passing my 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee to my mother when my new truck comes in. We currently tow our 19 foot Airstream with my husband’s 2014 Tundra, but there are many times I want to go camping and he isn’t available. I want...
