towing trailer + 3200lb car
I am considering buying a trailer so I can tow my Mustang. I move a few times a year so it would be nice to have instead of shipping it. Right now I have a 93 5.0 5 speed with 4.10's but I just don't know if it's up to the task, 5spd seems to hurt it. Considering buying a 5.4l 10th gen if it will struggle. I've towed a 2600lb car on a dolly and it was pretty slow going. What do you all think?

What size tires? You shouldn't have any issues towing with that setup. the M5OD-r2 has a pretty decent 1st gear ratio, right around 3.9:1. Much better than any auto will give you.
