Outstanding Towing Features

Roughly 90 percent of your Super Duty

®

customers use their trucks for towing, and the Trailer Tow Package is a great selling point. Be sure that

your customers understand the towing capabilities of their vehicle and warn them against overloading. Explain that dual-rear-wheel (DRW) vehicles
are designed for greater towing stability, not necessarily for increased capacity. DRW models are especially useful for customers who want to tow
a 5th-wheel trailer.
