Default Carrying Capacity?

how much weight can I carry in my dump/pan whatever you want to call it. I was wondering if I could carry a sled deck with 2 sleds on it safely?

2015 f150 lariat fx4 scab 6.5ft box 3.5L ecoboost max tow package 3.55 diff

HUH?

In the bed?

Looking on the drivers door there is a yellow and white sticker with tire info as well as payload info. The number listed on there is your pay load, which includes a full tank of fuel and a 150lb driver. If your 200lbs subtract 50lbs from that number along with subtracting everything else you may have added to the truck.

haha I live in newfoundland, Canada and we call it dump or pan or bed of the truck haha.. I realize the load I am looking for is the pay load. I didn't know that was how it was calculated.. my sled deck with 2 sleds full of gas is about 1500lbs max. I don't have the truck yet she is ordered. I was just doing some research while I was waiting.

Pretty much every truck is different so you will have to wait for the truck to come in to see what the sticker says.

See how this one says 1788lb, that's the number your looking for.

perfect thanks..so I will be close to maxed out on that particular truck. but I will check my own when I get her. at this capacity will she look sagged down in the rear that much where it looks stupid? if so maybe I can go with air bags?

I hear there are different frame thicknesses for the 2015+ f150's with the different payload packages. Does anyone know the different frame thicknesses associated with what payload packages? My door sticker says 1893 lbs with the 7000 lb gvw package. I know it probably doesn't have the thickest frame because that's probably reserved for the max tow trucks but LD or HD?
