Hi. I want to know if my 99' Eddie Bauer 5.0L can tow a 5000 lb. boat and trailer. What is the best way to determine if it can handle that load?
Thanks.
Thanks.

Welcome to this forum! I've moved your thread into the towing section. The owner's manual should list the towing capacity.

id pull 5k with mine. the owners manual does have towing specs. so does this page: http://www.explorerforum.com/ntrprize/spec1999.htm says 6520lbs so you should be within towing spec.

The best way to know your vehicle's capability is to read your owners manual.
