TC,

Alot of it has to do with how well the load is balanced in the trailer. Towing a 2500 lb car in a 20 footer is totally different from towing a 3500 lb car with fule, tool chests, spare parts, etc.

My Expedition towed very well, straight and comfortable, with a full load and the leveling bars. But even with a Super Chip installed and a K&N filter, the 5.4 ran out of steam on the hills. Thay are rated to 7900 lbs towing, but I found, even at about 6800 lbs lowwd, it could be a bear.

Now with the F250 Diesel / 4WD and 4x4 off road suspension, I can tow up to 12000 lbs, no problem.
