I so cannot wait until spring to pull our pontoon to the lake. My 1994 f150 had no issues so the 2013 should pull like nothing. My set up is a 2013 5.0 litre pulling a 24 ft toon on a tandem trailer. So cannot wait. Who else pulls a large boat?

What motor was in the 94? and how heavy is the boat?

The 94 had a 5.0 litre as we'll and the toon is approximately 3800 lbs. weight is not an issue just cross wind . The 2013 has much more HP.

I pull the families 24 foot pontoon aswell. 2012 5.0 scab no issues. Little different then pulling my seadoos though!

Do you pull yours out of the water in 4 low or high? I know what the manual says just curious? Look forward to many trips to the lake this summer.

4hi if needed I'm not racing out of the launch

I have a '09 FX4 with a 5.4l and I pull a 21' Searay Sundeck. It is usually hooked up about every weekend in the summer time, we trailer it to the lake and the river.

Right on. Plan to do the same when this darn winter takes off. Lol

We have our 20ft pontoon on a single axle trailer - total weight 3000lbs.
It's pulled with the 2010 4.6L and you certainly know the boat is back there - wind and aerodynamics play a huge part in towing one of these.
When pulling out at the ramp, I'll use 4hi.

First of all I must say "Go Jets go". Now towards the topic. I asked about the pulling out if water as the manual states 4 low. My old ford use to really rev before it pulled the boat out of the water. Was wondering if 4 low makes a difference. Only one way to find out. Come on spring.
