Hope that works.

Here is what I towed with my 2010 screw 4x4 Lariat 5.4. Traded it for 2012 platinum Eco so waiting to see how it does when summer rolls around, from what I've read it better. Hope it can handle this beast better than the 5.4 did. It did pretty decent but searched for gears constantly, loud, constantly at 5000k rpm but never over heated or even moved the needles on 107* day. KY roads are terrible so looking into air bags. Eco better do the job, 9800lb including fuel, trailer and gear. It's a load for a 1/2 ton.

Getting ready to move. The trailer is completely full with not an inch to spare. I drive from Los Angeles to Maryland starting tomorrow. All the crap in the bed stays behind.

FHP?

I miss my fox body.


PS: When you're towing that, how often do you look in your rear view mirror and freak out that there's a cop behind you?

This will be my third time doing this drive. Its a fun drive but having all my stuff with me means I have to skip out on the sightseeing a bit. I always stop in Texas though for some BBQ!

How about the 72oz steak in Amarillo ?? Haha we travel Indiana to Arizona like every other year for long time now and I'm assuming that if you are coming from L.A. You go thru there lol

Agreed its a fun drive though! Every now and then we skip over to Coronado, CA and while driving back east you basically get to see all the changes in landscape the US has to offer which is awesome!!

Safe travels!!
