Yeah, it seems a little small for the job of pushing a big, heavy superduty around.

I recently traded in my 08 F250 FX4 Screw long bed 5.4 for a brand new F150 FX4 Screw 6.5' bed with the new 3.5 liters Ecoboost. I could tow up to 9500 pounds with the 250, but 11300 with the 150. When you're pulling a travel trailer with the kids, all the stuff for a family of 5, through the Rockies, you find out pretty fast that it's a little short on power. With the Ecoboost, power seems endless, go figure! Just my 2 cents...! 8)

the 5.4 is a little under powered in a 250 because my dad has a 2005 with the 5.4 and the manuale transmishion and it lacks on power and only gets around 12 mpg

If its a "Super Duty" it needs a diesel. BTW...not to offend...but I couldn't resist my previous comment. Your spelling of manual transmission is hilarious.
