My 1992 F150 SC long bed, had well over 100K miles, the 5.0l V8 was rated (new) @ 185hp, had no problem pulling my "garden trailer" with 3 pallets of lanscaping block, 7000# total, the wifes 2002 Explorer 4.6l (2V), had some difficulty however the short wheel base made towing this much weight a pain.. This is a lot more weight than when we haul our 2 motorcycles and kayaks. (the Explorer tows that just fine, 3500# + trailer)
The Cash for clunkers deal co-erced me into letting the '92 go, even though I haven't tried yet I believe my 09 w/ the 3V 4.6l (292hp) and trailer towing pacakge will be even better than the old 92.
=> I believe you won't have any problems towing with your 4.6l 3V

I had the same 92 as you....5.0 and scab. It would pull the weight but not a camper with any surface area ......my camper only weighs 2500# and it struggled mightly pulling that at freeway speeds!!!! A low trailer with weight wasn't a problem. My 04 w 5.4 and 3.55's pulls the same camper at 80 if I wanted too....60-65 is nothing.
