I was pulling my Xlite 21RBS with a 2012 f150 3.5 ecoboost. After just 1 trip I traded up to a 2016 F 250 with 6.7L diesel. For me, that little 6 banger was working too hard and even overheated on me here in the mountains of SW Virginia. Plus I had the intake condensation problems that caused severe loss of power just when power was needed, i.e. passing or towing uphill. Oh, and got 7.5 mpg towing my small trailer. New truck is far superior will last much longer and better MPG.
