Towed 9000lbs with a 4.6L
Puts me at ease, worring about how long can my 4.6ltr hold up towing my 3000#lb boat around every single weekend! But you have put me at ease... with my thoughts! The typical trip will consist of 3-4 adults and 4-6 kids at any given weekend... coolers, grillles, lots of food..(usaully requires 2 vehicles to get everyone and everythig to the lakes) usually 100-150 mile trips. Getting me excited waiting for the winter season to break so we can get back out on the water again! HOORAH! Im a loving my 4.6ltr 2004 FORD f-150 Heritage, now i have 15000 miles on mine just popped over 15000 yesterday(put 2700 miles on truck in 5 mnths) not to bad! Can't wait to put many more miles on this truck, especially driving to the local lakes, and spending the weekends with my family!

I frequently tow an 8000 lbs travel trailer with a 1000 hitch weight, and the rear of my truck squats maybe 1/4" more than the front. When hooked up, looking solely at the truck, it looks as if it has no trailer attached to it.

And if I am not mistaken, you are running 18inch wheels, which is even more impressive.
Luck to ya,
