Default 2004 F150 5.4 towing

2004 F150 Lariat 5.4 tow package, Super crew towing 2013 Keystone Cougar 27RLS. Equalizer hitch came with it and stabilizer also. Prodigy 3 Brake controller. Brought it home 50 miles on twisty local roads with no issues. Bit slow up hills.

Moosedog, when you're at Bayview, do you get noise or fumes or view of the refineries ?

The best I can say is. Yes, but it has to be the right one. Your payload will severely limit your trailer weight, this is made worse by using the typically higher tongue weight ratio of a 5W. And obviously you'll have to find a short enough "tongue" to clear the cab.
