[QUOTE=Edisteve;402222]Are you satisfied with the F150 towing that trailer. I have the same truck 2013 Ecoboost 3.5L , 3.73. Thinking of buying a 25RES (7600lbs), what do you think of using the ecoboost. ?[/QUOT

If that's a 5th wheel check the door sticker on your truck, likely the payload is 1500+/- lbs then NOPE it's not enough to carry a 7600 lb 5er regardless of what Ford states as max tow weight. That 7600 lb RV will be 1200-1500lb, possibly more, pin weight or very near 1000 lb tongue weight for a TT with a 28-30' trailer pushing from behind.
