My boat and trailer weigh about 1500 and I barely feel it when I tow. The big deal is the brakes.... can you stop what's behind you!

I would say 3500 with trailer brakes and no O/D you'll be fine.

CV's used to be rated at 5K# but Ford replaced A LOT of transmissions and dropped to 2K# towing capacity!!:cool:
I have towed my Cobra in my enclosed trailer and it was pretty evident it was back there at a total weight of about 6K#.......flat country and I didn't go far!!:shake:
3,500# would probably be OK with the O/D OFF as mentioned before!!:beer:
