Yah, we like it so far. Just picked it up a few days ago. We are taking our first trip over Easter. The kids are super excited for the bunks! I can't believe that its 4,000lbs fully loaded.

Towed the trailer (Bullet Premier 31BHPR) home today from the dealership which is 133 miles from my house. The 3.5EB got me 10 mpg driving 65 mph with a 20 mph crosswind. The truck pulled it way better that I could have hoped. I'm not going to be one of those guys that says "I didn't even know it was back there!" because you definitely notice it's there, but when you mash the pedal down it goes..... 1750 rpm @ 65 mph in 6th gear in tow/haul mode.

Spotdog14 - what Jayco model do you have? I looked at some Jayco trailers yesterday and they're very nice.

It's a Jayco Jayfeather 7 19BH. We did not want a hybrid camper because it's not much better than sleeping in a tent and didn't want to have to fold down a dinette everything we went to bed.

Though I am kind of drewling over this model. It's a lot bigger than we wanted but we'll you know, bigger is better.

Default Towing 5th Wheels

I'd like to know if anyone has experience using a F150 with 3.5 ecoboost to pull a 5th wheel. I'm considering trading in my 8600# GVWR bumper pull for a 9900# GVWR 5th wheel.
