Here's a couple of photos of my F150 towing a Raptor 21FB Toy Hauler on my way to Colorado from Austin..

I LOVE my Ecoboost! Pulling this camper at 65-70 mph I ave. 10.5-11MPG With 355 gears. Tranny stays at 209 max. This camper loaded is about 7500 lbs. No complaints here!

 

[STdan]

^^ Wow, what's the hitch weight on that 5th wheel?

 

[JaymeG]

700 lbs. It's an 89 camper so it's the steel frame not the aluminum. The EB does a great job. Even through valleys and tight hills

 

[STdan]

700 pounds isn't bad at all. I was thinking it would have been way over 1000.

 

[JaymeG]

Nah.. I was looking at a newer 27' mid profile and the hitch weight was 850. The nice thing about 5th wheel is they're usually pretty balanced out.

Pretty light so far with just the snow fighter tractor on the flat bed. Sure towed better than the the previous trailer tugger.

I shoot sporting clays and use the Polaris Ranger for my gear.

Trailer and cart weigh 4,200#.

Nice pic ^^^ I'm really involved in a number of side-x-side sites. Those things are a blast to drive!

 

[KRIEGHOFF]

The guys on the side x side sites just don't understand why I never get my Polaris Ranger dirty! LOL

Here is a pic I snapped while on the long haul from Orlando back to Alberta Canada. The ECOBOOST pulled really good, no loss of power...EVER. There are now 11,000 miles on the truck and about 10,000 of them are towing this trailer. The average fuel economy we got was 11mpg but the wind in SD & ND kicked it down a little bit more. I guess that's what you get when you pull a couple thousand pounds across the continent!

Looking forward to moving from my Ford 3/4 ton diesel & really challenging my new 2013 Limited 4x4 with the Echoboost it has the 3.73 gears so supposedly it will haul 10K.

 

[STdan]

What a trip FP_ecoboost! I'll have to do that next time I pull my toy hauler on a trip.

 

[STdan]

Cool, be sure to let us know how it compares!

Winter time towing!

Here's mine with Orange attached. Orange is a 5 x 10 aluminum trailer that carries my race bikes and all the crap (generator, tool box, canopy, spare tires, etc.) around. I used to have a Honda Pilot to do the job. Now it's the F-150 that's taken over. I'll be going on my first trip down to Florida in mid-Feb and I'm hoping I get better mileage than I did with the Honda.

 

[Fatrabbit]

Just a little toy that I haul from time to time !

 

[STdan]

Nice, what's under the hood of that thing

27 ft. Wolf Pack, 5800 pounds empty, loaded with a week's worth of food and the RZR with all the goodies, about 8000 pounds.
