I just wanted to share my first experiences pulling something substantial with my Bronco (2.7, 4.27 Big Bend 4-dr with 35's and a 2.5 in lift). I would imagine this cattle trailer weighs around 3000 lbs. I had no trailer brakes, but it did fine. I cruised at 60 with absolutely no problem. I've had lots of experience pulling--bumper pulls, RV's with toads behind, etc.--and the Bronco was as stable and mannered as anything I've driven.
Note I had to remove the spare tire...thanks to a friend for yelling before I tore the jack and/or spare off!
I did get a "trailer brake fault--check manual" warning once or twice...maybe because I don't have a brake controller installed. Overall, I was impressed.
