I have a 2011 Ford F-150 ecoboost. We have never had an issue with transmission. We went on trip (few hundred miles) pulling trailer. No problems whatsoever. Parked overnight get in it to go to work put in drive it moved a few feet and slips it stops moving and motor revs up and get indicator shows it’s in 5th after this occurs. Seems strange that it happened without any prior issues. Please help troubleshoot

Sounds like a transmission fault. Sounds like a nightmare but it is not and could be very cheap to repair if you are handy. Ford transmissions retain hydraulic accumulator servos with large snap rings. Occasionally a snap ring breaks disabling the accumulator and possibly the snap ring fragments interfere with valve body function. I recommend that you check out YouTube contributor 'Mustie1' and his "Ford f150 transmission repair".

SOURCE: 5th. Gear

Sounds like you may have bent a shift fork or your cluster gear has some missing teeth on it now. I would venture to say that is it a bent shift fork. This will require the transmission be removed to gain access to inspect and repair.

2011 f150 ecoboost acts as though it is not getting fuel on take off. This happens occasionally and you can turn the motor off for a couple minutes and wil l run fine. Seems to be happening more often

Curious, have you tried pulling any codes from the vehicle? Here is a video on an issue that is common, though it causes more of a misfire and hesitation then a lack of fuel feel:

How to fix electronic throttle control on 2004 dodge ram 1500

You need the engine control system scanned to see what fault code is in memory for this problem once you have the fault code you do diagnostics to determine which part or parts are failing. I warn you don't guess all the parts (with few exceptions) in the electronic throttle control are very expensive.

I have a 1994 Ford E-150 Conversion Van. It has a

57k miles on a '94, nice...
The transmission should be able to handle a 500lb load and a 500lb tow, you really shouldnt hardly even notice the weight unless you going up some steep grades.
as far as what to look at before going on a long trip, diffenetly get a oil change if you havent in 1500'ish miles (or get one on the road when you get closer to the recommended mileage of 3k miles, which you should hit easy enough on a 11 hour drive to your destination) Perhaps plugs and wires if you havent had at least 1 tune up since driving off the lot. all your fluids, bulbs, fuses(bring extra fuses with you), at least 1 spare tire, tire pressure(35-42psi), and anything else that is general maintance that needs to be done also.
Other then that, you should be fine... Just dont forget to check the gas gauge once in awhile, and she shouldnt die on the way :P

After how many miles should I change oil in 2003 Ford F-150,V6, 2WD, regular cab, automatic transmission, gasoline motor pick-up?

It depends on the filter and oil you use. My last Crown Vic had 165000 miles with no problems.

I use the Ford Lube services when there's a sale or Valvoline blended synthetic. Around 4000 mile intervals has been good for me. Never went longer than 5000 miles on anything I have owned. I have owned over 50 vehicles, never had lube failure.

1994 F350 transmission intermittent problem

I had the same problem in my 96 f-350. The transmission has slipped recording a slip code in the transmission. You can pull the codes and get it. I shifts into a safe mode that increases the pressure inside your transmission as part od a fail safe. Plain and simple, you have to have the tranny rebuilt.
