Default Platinum 4x4 towing 34' SeeVee boat

*Not my setup but goes to show proper trailer setup is crucial to managing a load. I don't think this truck has the max tow package due to the regular mirrors.

Guy said the EcoBoost pulled the boat right out of the ramp and got it on the road just fine.

The max tow package does not include the larger tow mirrors.

Huh?

It does in the states. You can get them optional on other trims but maxtow includes towing mirrors.

Proper set up or not, that boat is over the trucks weight limits and shouldn't be pulled with a 1/2 ton of any kind!

Retarded! You can afford a 200K+ boat and not spend an extra 10-15K and get a 2/350!

In reality, most of the weight for that boat is in the aft section, which may explain why there is little sag on the F150. That being said, just because you can do something, doesn't mean you should, or that it is a good idea.......

I wish that was the case in Canada. Here the tow mirrors are optional equipment on the max tow package.

It's a bit odd since, as far as I know, all F150s sold in Canada are assembled in the U.S. (mine is from Dearborn) .

Apologies for taking the thread off topic.
