I know guys who are towing a lot more then rated but if you blow something out and they decide you overloaded your warranty is junk.
BTW I love the new style of F150, or well almost new now they they brought out the '09. BUT a lot of people seem to be having a lot of issues with them. Fuel issues seem to be prevalent especially up north. Buddy here just took it up the shorts on his '06 just to get rid of the thing. Glad I didn't upgrade my '02 now.

no, just means that the trannys are built better than they were in the past. And I love the 09 F150s
I have the one I want all priced out and printed ready to order... in like 3 years when I can afford it. $39,335 before rebates.
