Towing with F150.

We will never go back to gassers, absolutely love our diesels - effortless towing.
 
The only truely effortless towing is putting your boat in a slip!! Trust me I know.

If I had a lake nearby I would do that, closest lake to me is 1 1/2 hours away.

I hear ya. I used to tow everywhere but now I am 45 minutes from Lake Texoma so first we stored dry at the lake and even that got tedious, so we slip now. I think if I towed a ton like I used to, a diesel would be in the mix. Love the Eco mainly for the turbo and torque. Also if I had an RV, it would be a no brainer...

My Grand Parents lived in Denison, TX they passed away years ago, God Rest Their Souls! I spent 2 weeks every Summer on Texoma, lot's of great memories.............Unfortunately I cannot tolerate the humidity and heat during the Summer there, Arizona is a dry heat which I can live with.
