I think it automatically loads the information about your truck once you enter your VIN. Like you, I didn't have anything load using Chrome v87.0.4280 and the newest Firefox. Site says not compatible with IE.

It worked via Safari on my iPhone. Entered VIN, automatically loaded my truck deets. Didn't hit enter anywhere.

Just hit enter when your cursor is at the end of your VIN.

This worked great for mine that went to produced status this week.

Strange, it worked for me with your VIN.

Excellent, thank you. Now if they’d just implement the damn thing into the Build & Price tool we’d be golden.

Default Nice!! i Dig it!

[QUOTE=Matt_E_Salesman;6889423]This is great! No more looking at door jamb stickers! Plug in the vin (or just last 8) of any 2018+ F-series truck and get the payload rating, towing capacity, GVWR, GCWR etc.:

Good stuff right here!

Nice! It appears I was within 25 lbs of my estimated payload. I guess the BBAS guide is pretty accurate. 2600 lbs isn't too bad...

Is this Max Trailer Rating of 7000# correct? I’m getting the same for mine. According to Ford brochure, should be 9800. Wonder what is the limiting factor here.

Not sure, that’s not my VIN or truck, but I do believe that without a tow package, you’re capped at 7,000. That truck doesn’t show that it has any tow package, probably just tow tech or nothing.
