It's great for finding the payload of a vehicle that you have the VIN for.

If you use the bottom section, it fails at noting that you're overweight as I illustrated.

Very cool and spot on with payload. They should put this in FordPass so when u select vehicle details it pulls up details of your VIN

I messed around with this last night and it seems to work great for vehicles on dealer lots, but did not work with my VIN from my truck on order that is not built yet. I'm assuming my order truck will not show up until after it's built.

Won't work with my VIN. It's a factory order that hasn't been build yet, but it seems odd that that would matter. Great find though, I'll bookmark this for when I finally get my truck.

I tried a couple coming soon trucks on dealer site and it did not work. I tried ones that were sitting on the lot and it worked.

You need to use it on a computer, or, if on a phone or tablet, switch to Desktop view.

Did you hit the return button after VIN entry?
