Haven't towed the Tiger, but my 2003 5.4 Expedition handles the '41 Continental pretty well, and it is heavy. I bought the 5.4 and not the 4.6 for that reason. If I didn't tow much, as I do/don't, I'd get a v-8 like this that won't kill you every day. It is a compromise. . . If I towed much, you'd find me at the diesel pump. . . John Dillman
