Towing

I have a 2001 L and am considering buying a small camper (6000 lbs). I know the maximum tongue weight for our trucks is 500 lbs, but what is the max tow weight?

Get a F250 or F350, you can use it to tow the camper or the lightning, or both.

you'll be able to tow 6,000 fine.

If it's got heavy tounge weight, the 03' shocks would help you.

There are plenty of people that tow in excess of 5,000 with their trucks...
