[QUOTE="BroncoAZ, post: 1530718, member: 36963"] I would keep the Raptor if you like it, screw what someone else thinks of your usage. It may be overkill, but the Raptor will handle any dirt road exploration better than pretty much anything else. If you want to switch platforms any F-150 would work, no point in paying for the extra fuel or cost on a F-250 for a glorified car camper. You would probably be fine with a 2.7L engine while enjoying better MPG for longer trips. Towing anything 7,000 pounds or less is very comfortable in a F-150. Add some airbags if you need to level it out with a load. Over 7K I’d consider a F-250 depending on distance, over 9K definitely F-250 regardless of distance. My brother towed 9,200 pounds of boat with a 2016 F-150 for a couple seasons and it does it ok, but his F-250 7.3 gasser does it much better with less stress. [/QUOTE]
