Congrats. You found a brochure of lies.

Ford doesnt care about your safety.

I suggest custom made springs that would make an f350 envious. But trading it in for a 350 DRW would be better. Or downsize to a smaller trailer.

Yay.

And street girls have "hard working individual" as the title of their resume. Means nothing when your trucks headlights, only light up the moon.

Towing guide is not the law, has nothing to do with "legally", it is a guide, a suggestion.

The tow guid does not include the reduction for other options added. My tow capacity is 1000 pounds less than what the guid says using the vin tool from ford:

For true tow capacity use the for towing calculator. https://www.ford.com/support/towing-...K1XrH9ajTm8VZx

Does your truck have the optional High Capacity Trailer Tow Package that is required for those highest trailer ratings? (#2 footnote)
