    Camper Towing

    So many factors when it comes to this. Ie tire pressures, wind resistance, hitch set up. But your towing with a gas truck. Your powerband is in the higher end of the rpm’s. Your not towing with a diesel that makes its max torque at 12-1500 rpm. As others have said. Your pulling a sail, one that...

    how much HP, opinions

    I’m having a hard time believing a lot of things in this post. Maybe it’s just lack of knowledge. These stock trucks are lucky to put down 300 at the wheels

    ScaryTowing!

    Yes applying the trailer brakes would have straightened it right out. Chances are this trailer was heavily loaded in the back. It was a toy hauler trailer. Probably Stuck 1 to many buddy’s quads in the back. And the whole trip turned to shit.

    IS IT TIME 5.7 TO GET DROPPED ???

    It’s not half as much as 5.7 that is exaggerating. I still put half the amount of fuel in my ford, then I did any of my 5.7s I would get 13 mpg normal driving and 7mpg towing with 5.7 According to the lie-o-meter on I’m getting 20 mpg combined and 10.5 mpg towing with 3.5. I worked out my...

    IS IT TIME 5.7 TO GET DROPPED ???

    That makes sense for a half ton but not 3/4 tons. That’s what those trucks are for towing and hauling. It’s not a 4 door crew cab soccer mom half ton. I’ve read many posts on this site on what guys drag racing are able to do. Thanks for the entertainment

    IS IT TIME 5.7 TO GET DROPPED ???

    I thought you guys asked if we thought the 5.7 should be dropped? Why ask if you can’t take the heat? I just come for the idiots that ask. “ can my truck tow this”. Lol I used to be a die hard mopar guy. But after the issues I’ve had with fca’s shit products and shit service I’ve had...

    IS IT TIME 5.7 TO GET DROPPED ???

    I don’t know I don’t work for ford. Do you?? And tow 13,000pounds max? With 4:10s riding at 3500 rpm’s at 60mph Stopping at every fuel Station. Mean while all are half tons can tow that much now. I don’t see your argument here. It wasn’t successful. It was a company theifing money from hard...

    IS IT TIME 5.7 TO GET DROPPED ???

    I can’t say I’ve ever worked out the mpg. But I know my fuel bill isn’t lying to me. I guess people get sore over peoples real world experience. As I’ve said in other posts. I’ve owned 15,17 and 19 ram with 5.7 Also we have owned 17,19,21 f150s 17 was a 5.0 19 was a 2.7 and 21 is 3.5 So I...

    IS IT TIME 5.7 TO GET DROPPED ???

    The hemis are some of the most expensive engines to fix… Plenty of eco boosts with 200,000miles+ on them…. Used about half as much fuel in those miles then the hemi would have used. Beat every ram in a drag race up the hill with a trailer on too.

    IS IT TIME 5.7 TO GET DROPPED ???

    My self wouldn’t ever purchase a 2wd truck. So I wouldnt even consider that. But there is no way possible the 5.7 is more fuel efficient in any configuration of ford. Real world experience. Not crap posted online

    IS IT TIME 5.7 TO GET DROPPED ???

    I don’t need to work my ford like I did my rams. Not to mention have to worry about my payloads/trailer weights. In my case, ford is more fuel efficient.

    IS IT TIME 5.7 TO GET DROPPED ???

    Sorry but the fuel economy is now where close to a ford. And the new 3.5 is 450hp and 500ft of torque. Well ahead of the 5.7 hemi.
