    The engine isn't the limiting factor in the F-150. Frame, suspension, axle capacity, transmission and brakes are.

    Apply 400 ftlbs of torque with all other components being the same and it should have the same GCWR.

    Ford put a lot of engineering effort into the EcoBoost motor. Even though this is more of a marketing stunt, I'm still very impressed that they did a tear down like this. (And I'm a GM man at heart...)

    Don't do it!. I had tow a 22 feet trailer with 4k lbs unloaded. I towed it 100 miles to camping and sometimes with the wind, it flowed like a boat :). I had wdh, brake controller, etc. Get a bigger truck or smaller trailer.
