With factory towing package 3500 LBS same tranny same motor . So what do they add a tow hitch and wiring
upgraded radiator /upgraded fans & sway control most likely for tranny cooling. So a nice big aftermarket tranny cooler in front of the radiator should cool better than factory upgrade. I have been told by tranny repair people that fords have undersized cooler and recommend adding aux cooler for any towing. Its almost always about the tranny when towing. If electric brake are on the trailer I highly recommend so get the extra wiring and controller installed you wont feel the load pushing you so much and it will brake better with less sway. Don't floor the accelerator just because you want to get up to speed faster this will work the tranny too hard and cause it to build heat, Don't run it in overdrive with close to max loads. Be easy on your vehicle and change the tranny fluid every 30,000 and your edge should give you a very reliable tow vehicle.
