  1. Towing an Airstream with Gen14, and ProPower 7.2

    Thanks Jack. Good to hear about that experience. Iā€™ve researched the topic quite a bit ahead of placing my order and despite the many, many voices suggesting a 3/4 ton truck was the only way to go, Iā€™m pretty convinced the 1/2 ton F150 will do just fine from a power and handling standpoint with...
  2. Towing an Airstream with Gen14, and ProPower 7.2

    Iā€™ve not seen that documented anywhere either. I assumed the electric motor assisted the gas engine in tow haul mode just because the PowerBoost delivers a higher towing capacity than the EB version. If PB didnā€™t kick in while towing, how would it deliver that extra capacity? That was my...
  3. Towing an Airstream with Gen14, and ProPower 7.2

    You mean EB in this case, no? And thanks for your thoughts!
  7. Towing an Airstream with Gen14, and ProPower 7.2

    This a great thread... I have Lariat PB 502 on order to tow my current and future Airstream (upgrading from 22 to 25). Truck has few options, affording me the payload I need. The question I have is more about range. Seems like: 1) The MPG when towing is lower than folks expected with the PB. 2)...
