There is a lot of threads on this - the epas will plow fine level & straight - it's the wet heavy snow piled up against a light or heavy plow ( don't matter) straining the epas when turning & piling snow up. Nothing to do with strain on electric system feeding the epas. That's why ford said no to plowing with the new 150s - they should of left the epas for cars only & this would not even be an issue-
What he said. The extra weight in the front puts too much strain on the electronic steering assist.
That being said, I've seen plenty of trucks with plows. Just don't get the 8 foot V plow and you're good!

Yup. The old frames were C rail whereas our 12th gens are dual boxed frames...far superior to the old frames.
