First time towing with the new 2020 F350 6.7 was from SW Washington, to Sand Hollow, then over to Moab, and then home. Approx 2,800 miles. The new 10 speed trans is amazing, so much nicer than the 6 speed in my 2012 6.7L. I had the thing in Tow/Haul mode the entire time and set the exhaust brake on Auto. Mountain passes were way too easy for it, both going up and coming down. This is with the truck with the bed loaded, myself, my wife, and our 10 and 6 year old. The trailer weighs about 3K and the Jeep is probably pushing 6K. The adaptive cruise control was nice as well for the long stretches of highway.
The plan is to eventually get a toy hauler or fifth wheel, and I wanted to get as much towing capacity as I could without stepping up to an F450 or Dually. I looked at the 6.7 Tremors, but their suspension package drops their tow ratings down.
