Default HDPP question

Hi All...new here...looking at a 2019 F150 with a 3.5 Eco, 7000# gvwr (listed on sticker) and max tow. I have been reading in the forums about the hdpp. I know what it stands for, but have NEVER seen it listed on any of the stickers I've looked at (so many I have a headache). Is the HDPP an actual package? Should it be listed on the sticker?

I am looking to pull a TT with a 8500 GVWR and I'd like to try and get the hdpp. Thanks in advance.

HDPP only comes in the 6.5' bed flavor for crew cab and 8' for the others. It's a 1500 dollar option.

You will have a hard time finding them in dealer stock. Most people have to special order them. And as stated above, it needs to be a supercrew+6.5' bed, a supercab+8' bed or a regular cab+8' bed to be able to even get it as an option. It is only available in an XL or XLT in the US. They used to have it in Lariat.

There are a handful of dealers around the country that seem to stock them.

Thats pretty much exactly the one I would want right there. XLT, Bench seat, Sync 3, and minimal other options.

I just looked at that link and man that white and a few options is nice! I only prefer black or white and I was lucky enough to find my black. That white does have a nice additional options although I'm curious to know the payload sticker.

The best way to find them, for me at least, is to search the googles for "YEAR f150 7850 GVWR", then select the photos option. If you click the random dealership links, they are normally extended cab trucks, rarely supercrew....

If anyone wants to know what I'd like for xmas

You can do a visual on a lot for these unique wheels, which are specifically for the HDPP. There are 17 inch steel wheels for the XL.

The HDPP package must contain the Max Tow as a singular package, but the Max Tow is a stand alone option on other trucks, but not the HDPP.

Thank you all for your feedback. I was able to locate a few on the web using nathan3306 search suggestion. The TT I am looking at has a 8500# gvwr. Do you think I am going overboard looking for a hdpp? I started looking for this package based on what I have read in this forum, but not sure. I'm kinda new to all this payload, tongue weight, etc stuff. I have enough knowledge to get me in trouble I guess. Brochure says I can expect 2690# payload, which subtracting tongue weight and people weight, that leaves me just over 1000# for cargo (which I think is plenty), and puts me within 400# of gcwr number if I load everything up (which I don't plan on but want to be prepared for). This is all if I am figuring it right.

I have a space issue in my driveway, so the longer wheelbase, while only 12", makes a difference for me. It won't fit in my garage due to height, so it's already going to be a cluster. Seems if I get the max tow without hdpp, there's plenty out there that have the options I want, including power equipment group, blis, etc. I expect the hdpp gives you handling similar to a f250 but allows you to stay with the f150 and ecoboost.

You want to leave yourself plenty of "wiggle room" when you are talking about towing or weight capacities. I have the HDPP package simply so that I can tow my TT safely and without worry. I could have towed it with any regular F150 but would have been pushing the limits.
