[QUOTE="Cowabunga, post: 9197966, member: 718"] Yes, that would seem to be so. Only late production models were uprated to tow 3.5 tons and only, as you point out, if the trailer had three axles. Even so, I don’t think the L200’s brakes were obviously lacking in comparison to others in its class. Rather oddly, the first Ford Ranger T6, from 2012 and 2013, only had a 3 ton limit but later ones, like mine, were rated for 3.5 tons. I’ve no idea what they changed, if anything, to gain the extra 500kg towing capacity. I suspect that perhaps they changed the final drive ratios, because Ford did and indeed do have three alternative ratios available to this day. [/QUOTE]
