    Re: Explorer - Towing Question

    I have a 2006 F150 with a V8 4.6 and it tows my 19' 6" boat better than my dodge did with a bigger V8. I am not sure that I would tow a 21 footer with it though. Probably need more truck for that to be on the safe side esp on wet roads.

    Re: Explorer - Towing Question

    I had a 2003 Mountaineer that had a V-6 and I had no trouble pulling my 201 Stratos down the road at 75 miles per hour up and down hills. I would get a class 3 hitch though. I also pulled my 21 foot Mariah open bow with no trouble. Good luck.
