Default Can I pull this boat?

It has absolutely nothing to do with the engine. It has everything to do
with the suspension, brakes, and rear end ratio. The F-150 is a light duty
truck. I don't know what the 29' boat weighs, but I suspect it is at least
5000 lbs ..... probably more when engine, gas and gear are factored in.
The F 150, although maybe "rated" by Ford to be adequate ... isn't, IMO, for
any long distance, hauling of a boat that size.


Thank you.
