Payload and Towing

If you’re considering the Ford F-150, it’s probably because you need a full-size pickup truck to help you take on those tough jobs. With the proper configuration, you can tow anything from a sailboat to a travel trailer and even a racecar box trailer. That’s because the 2019 F-150 has a maximum towing capacity of 13,200 pounds.

Looking to keep everything in the truck bed? Thanks to a lightweight high-strength steel frame, the F-150 can also carry an impressive payload. When properly equipped, this tough truck can carry up to 3,270 pounds in its cabin and bed.

That means you’ll have no problem bringing home a bed full of soil and mulch for your new raised-bed gardens. Or, carry your friends in the available 6-seat cabin while transporting motorbikes or ATVs in the bed.
