I have a 2000 V 10 in a 35' class A and even empty I have to keep it on the floor in any kind of hilly terrain, I don't believe it would get up the hills of KY with a trailer behind it.

I talked to three Ford dealer mechanics about the trans, two said it wouldn't last pulling a trailer and one said put in a deep pan and add an extra cooler.

I would look for a used, fairly short class A with a diesel, something that wouldn't break the bank.

BTW at the Indy I talked with the owner of a class C with a V 10 and he said he had no problems with it but he was towing a S/G roadster in a twenty foot trailer.....he had over 150k on it.

Good luck,
