Can someone point me to good Ford F150 forums?

Don't get me wrong, My son has a 2005 Tundra, his first vehicle so it's been abused, bought used with High Miles. It's been a Good Truck, but has some issues and is horrible on fuel. My Daughter has a Fresh 2017 Silverado, very low kms. Babied, goes through life as a Car basically. It has had many strange issues. Ignition Switch, Water in the Oil, Oil Pump failure.

Me and the Misses drive F150's, I get the Hand me downs, a 2013 that Pulls, Snowplow Heavily, basically the Work Horse of the Household. Maintenance and a Body Control Module due to a leaking windshield replacement. My wife's 2019 F150, same mileage as my Daughters Silverado 0 issues.

So the Toyo has about the same track record as the F150's in the Fleet, but it sure cannot compete when the Work comes.

This Road is 12 miles long, and many times/ winter it gets Nasty, way nastier than this.

I haven't seen anything like that yet. Even "etrailer" and if they don't have it, it probably doesn't exist. But a Good Shop could fabricate one easily. In fact, there is 3"-2.5" reducing sleeves available that could be welded to a 2" receiver.

I would have thought that an F150 now at 14,000 lb max towing there would be a 2.5" receiver made for it. I guess not. That 14,000 lb rating must be for a GN or 5th wheel configuration?

Actually, Fifth Wheel towing capacity would be limited to the Trucks Payload. A 627 HD Payload Package, Max Trailer Tow, on a F150 Crew/Super Cab 2wd rated for 14000lb towing capacity. GN or Bal Type. depending on Payload limitations

So GN and Ball type would be the only 14000 lb Trailers available. 2" receivers both equalizer and Straight have up to a 16000 lb GTW capacity.

Actually both Scenarios would be close to tipping the 19500 lb GCWR.
