Ford Supercrew and 5.0 TA

Is anyone towing with this combination? I believe its a 5.5 ft box.

Yup, with the 5.5 box. We use an aluminum Andersen Ultimate hitch (to save weight) and an under mount ball in the box, good system. You have to pay attention to the tailgate hooking up, but otherwise works well. The 6.5 box would be easier, but since it is a daily driver, I did not want a longer truck trying navigate the short parking stalls they make these days.

I have that cab with the 6.5' box, which is only available with the 35 l engine.
