Nice truck!

I have a 2016 F150 Ecoboost with Max tow, it's fantastic. I did opt for the tow mirrors, but I had previous experience towing my trailer with my dad's super duty...those mirrors are amazing.

If your trailer is 7ft wide, no issue with the stock mirrors.

My truck has been trouble free...almost 2 years and 55,000km so far.

Thank you. I'm super excited about this thing. It sounds like we have very similar trucks. I also have the 6.5' bed. Which, wasn't the easiest thing to find short notice with the options I wanted. I do believe I have one of the only Max Tow trucks without the factory tow mirrors. It would be an issue with any other trailer, but with this little one it will be fine. I don't even extend the tow mirrors on my Cummins when I pull this thing.

If it doesn't rain too much over the weekend, I want to get a baseline on the hitch and get it down to the scales if I can. The receiver is a full 5" lower than on my Ram, so I think I am going to have to swap out to an extended shank to get things level.

A little update to this thread. First tank full yielded 18.2 mpg hand calculated in mixed driving, mostly rural roads, some highway, and a little low speed 4x4 operation. Not bad in my opinion.
