So, looking for F1 50, to pull a horse trailer. On other threads I’ve talked about the requirements that I’m looking for and other people gave great suggestions. The issue I’m finding is that a lot of sales people don’t know what Ford even has to offer and so I’m relying on what I find here and what I can find on build sheets or ship. What does it show up as on the bill sheet/invoice for the HDPP And Max trailering package? It’s hard enough to find the gear ratio sometimes. And lots of times they just say trailering package which doesn’t really mean much. If anyone has a build sheet they don’t mind sharing, that would be great. Would love to see one with the HDPP and max towing package, 3.55 or 3.73 gear ratios with a 3.5 V6 turbo. Thanks in advance

 

If you order the HDPP, you’ll get the 3.73 gears w/ locker automatically. Also, for 2021 at least, the HDPP required max tow as well.

 

 

Mine will pull 9700# with these specifications. It is a base model and was delivered in 7 weeks. Hope this helps.

 

Well, I finally found the right truck. 2019 F150 lariat, 30,000 miles, 3.5 L turbo V6, 3.55 gear ratio, standard bed. I did not intend to get a lariat version with all the extras but that’s what it had. They gave me a great deal on my CX-5 , That will sell quickly in this market. They put on new tires for me, a better interest rate than even Usaa did. That was surprising given my credit score. I put some cash down also so it’s very reasonable payment each month. It’s getting the tires on them tomorrow and clean so I’ll probably get it for Monday or Tuesday after work. It’s black and they put custom wheels on it which I would not have done but it looks good and they did something to the grill so that it’s more customized. Again not some thing I would’ve done but it all came with the truck. I have looked at so many that I didn’t even drive because they smelled like smoke. I’m a former smoker and it really bothers me now so this was nice to find.
I learned a long time ago to just start with the sales person by telling them that I only do the back-and-forth with the manager two times and then I leave with or without their car. This guy was smart and got his manager in on the very first try. And we got it done in three tries because he came back with a better interest rate. Overall, very easy, amicable, fair for everybody. They gave me my car back as a loaner till the truck is ready. Very excited! I appreciate everybody’s input

 

 

And I forgot the most important thing is they max towing package!
