2015 F-150 Max Towing and Hauling Ratings (Released)
#31
Trying to order with the best payload I can get. I want to tow a trailer with 7050 dry weight, 720 tongue weight ( no water or propane, or gear). When I looked at stickers on the dealer lot, the yellow safety sticker is always much lower than what is indicated by the GVWR- vehicle weight?
If I can only get to 1850 payload with the HD option etc, I might be pushed into a bigger truck.
Thanks

My understanding is that the 2015 HD Payloads will not be coming out for quite some time. Maybe not until next summer?
The option is always marked as "late availability"

This is getting ineresting, I looked at a 2500HD Duramax (forgive me) and the payload expert was shocked to discover that a crew cab 6 and 1/2 foot bed can only carry 2360lbs!
He didn't believe it until looking at the load placard.
The F150 HD capabilities are awesome if it comes in at 2000 or more lbs of payload.
After all this research, I would not be surprised to find out that many people are driving overloaded combinations of truck/trailer.

My dad's Chevy 2500HD crew cab with 6.5 ft bed has a 2900# payload. I'm sure the diesel engine adds a lot of weight compared to the gas engine.

I couldn't find any payload info on the Ford build&price site. You can get close to the weight of the truck by subtracting the tow rating from the GCWR. 17,100 minus 11,100 = 6,000 pounds truck weight, including 150-pound driver.

Max Payload on the 163" wheel base is listed at 2,760lbs! I don't think an optioned up Lariat would have more than 500lbs of goodies added, many options are not available on the long bed.
Anyone own or know what the current HD model payload placard says?
I am not sure when I would get the truck if I order one now.
