Ordered new f150 with package to pull total 11,300 lbs. or carry 2600 lbs in box
Going to pull my 29.5 ft long 2004 cougar fifth wheel with it. No slider hitch. Hope making right call. Old 04 Chevy was 6.5 box same as new ford. Will find out. I know have to watch cab on turns. Wish me good travels. Thanks gentlemen.

Yes but not in price range. 90% of my driving is to work an other. Only pull trailer about 3-4 times a year right now an might try to hook my 21 ft boat behind an try that too still will be under weight and length for my state. Thanks.

Good luck with it, towing 11,300 with a V6 is great, is the payload really 2600? I thought it was more like 1,700+.
Anyway, good luck.
