I've towed plenty with my 2003 5.4 F150, lifted 10" w/36" tires. I did change the rear gears to 4.56s, and added a electronic brake controller. No problem with towing. Buying the 1/2 ton instead of the 3/4 was a matter of price concerns at the time of purchase. I tow much less than I use thetruck for daily driving. The extra premimum for hte 3/4 ton was just not worth the extra initial purchase for me. If you have the extra money I woudl go with the 3/4 ton. The 1/2 ton with the facotry tow package will provide heavy duty radiator, posi, trans cooler, class 3 hitch and all electrical hookups.
