Default Re: Tow Vehicle Preferences for more than 5K lbs

I have a 2008 ford f250 5.4 litre (gas) 4x4 truck. It pulls my 23 SC fairly well. I pulled the 23 SC for a few years with my previous truck, a 2001 1500 series Dodge Ram. My transmission went. I am not sure if the transmission failure was a direct result of towing the 23 or not...However, the transmission did begin to fail at the boat ramp and I barely made it home from the ramp on this one day.....I decided to step up to the F250 and it has been a good decision... My next truck will be one of those weenie-mobiles though.
