Default Towing Capabilities

I thought I'd ask here since I'm not sure about my F-150's towing capabilities.

I have a 94 F-150, with a 5.8 v-8 engine, shortbox

Now my question is........Would I be able to pull a 5th wheel with it. The wife and I have a 25 foot 1990 Kit Companion trailer that we are able to pull behind us now. Along with a 17 foot 1997 Regal boat behind that. We have been thinking of getting a new trailer, and have found a 35 foot 2006 Montana that we both love. I'd like to get the newer 5th wheel but I'm not wanting to get rid of my truck since its been the best vechicle I've ever owned. The farthest we mostly go now when we camp is around 70 miles one way with a 6% grade as the worst climb. Right now I do that climb doing around 45 mph comfortably. We bought the truck in 1998 and have been making this trip every year, once a year ever since.



I'm not sure on all the weights of the trailers or the boat so that all has to be guessed upon.
