Towing a 5th wheel with a 04 F150???? I'd like to hear from you

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Folks,

In light of the large body of misinformation on the web concerning the abitly of the new 2004 F150 to tow a 5th wheel I'd like to hear from you if you are a 04 F150 owner and towing any brand of 5th wheel. In particular if you would respond with answers to the following quesions perhaps we can help set the record straight.

If you would like to contribute your first hand experience it will be invaluable to others considering towing a 5th wheel with the 04 F150.

What F150 do you have (engine etc)?

What if any mods, suspension or otherwise have you made to the truck?

What brand/model 5th wheel are you towing (dry weight)?

Brake controler and hitch used?

Towing experiences and lessons learned if any?

Other comments, recommendations etc.

Thanks

Jerry K

fifth wheel

for the most part the bed is to deep the trailer would probably hit i dont think the f 150 is good for the fifth wheel trailer especially a heavy one which most are (heavy) get yourself an f 2 or 350 set up for that type of towing i.e diesel tall gears etc
