Engine roar

I have one more question,

I have a 2001 Ford F-150 5.4 litre with 111.000 kms, On hot days when im towing either my boat or travel trailer if i stop for some reason when i begin to travel again i hear a loud roar from under my hood and then when i slack back on the gas the roar goes away is this normal?

Probably is the fan engaging and that would be normal.

It's your fan engaging. Mine has come on every now and then in city driving when it's really warm out.
