So I finally hit my 1000 mile mark for towing! I have been excited to see how it tows. I have a 2012 fx4 max tow with 3.73 gears, 157" wheelbase, crew cab. I was pulling a 2012 keystone springdale 25' living 29' total length. Also I had a grizzly 700 in the bed. Camper weighs in at around 7500lbs and with a 600lb wheeler, so I was hauling around 8100lbs maybe a bit more.
The ecoboost handled to weight no problem! Although It wasn't a long trip it took some steep hills at 65 with ease. Shifted into third and I had to let off the gas to keep from speeding, tow haul seemed to work great! This "half" ton keeps impressing me more and more everyday. Tranny temp didn't go over 203 degrees, was getting around 12 mpg average. Not bad but I could have been a little easier on it for better mileage. When I pulled in and parked I could smell the newness of the exhaust and engine. Other than that it was amazing! I wish I had more weight to pull to see what it can do! Hope this helps anyone who is interested in the EB. Oh, and the sound of those turbos workin.... Mmmmmaan! It's music to my ears. Im starting to think I don't need a radio! I'd post a pic but not sure how to do it from my iPhone. :s Happy towing!

 

What RPM did you find yourself at when running 65mph?

Around 3500

 

Awesome! Thanks for posting!

 

Awesome! I can't wait to hook up a pontoon boat when I get back to the lower 48 this year!
