Howdy, anyone out there towing with a Ford F-150 XLT crew cab 5.0? We have a 2014 (been our tow vehicle for our boat for the past couple years) and I am interested to see what kind of gas mileage and "feel" folks been having with the old v-8. Ours is built for this from the factory with Ford tow package, 4x4, off road package, etc. We already have the electronic break controller and all the bells and whistles.
Anyone else out there towing with similar?

I have a 1994 F-150 4x4 with a 5.0 V-8 with 304,000 miles and 31 deer kills. I don't count the ones I hit and they run off. Anyway, normal mileage is 15 mpg, when hauling 375 cfm air compressors or other 'Big" stuff, mileage on mine is around 10-11. Also have a standard stick, am on my second clutch as this is a work truck, wood hauling truck, golf cart hauling truck, ect. The compressor weighs in at 3800 lbs.

2017 RPod 180 and 2016 Toyota Tacoma. The Tacoma, so far, tows the RPod like a champ. The dealer recommended weight distribution system / sway control device is being used. Although, the device does not work as the dealer promised (i.e. no adjustments necessary and no need to turn off sway control when reversing into a campsite; dealer was wrong on both counts). Once we figured out how to work the device we were good to go.

Welcome!! Let me know how the newer SRX does with the Pod!
 I am quite proud of my 2008, but she has a lot of miles on her so I am test driving vehicles for a future trailer size increase....

Worked great the the 2.5 hours of 'not that flat' terrain + highway (from Sherbrooke to Quebec city). We'll get it tested from Quebec City to Old Orchard Beach later on this month. |

New to the R Pod world but excited to get out there next weekend. 2009 RP175, 2005 4Runner, V6, Ltd. I've added the axle risers since this shot. Don't want to remove anything accidentally.
