A 4X2 will give you more payload too. Honestly, with those trailers, you will be close to payload but its not like you're putting a 14k camper on it. You've got a smart choice, smart sized camper and have a WDH. You'll be very fine.

Just a thought If it's just you and the bride traveling, we bought a supercab rather than the crewcab. My Lariat has 1903 lbs of payload. Could have been close to 2100 had I not gotten the 4x4

There are 2 threads dedicated to 2021 payload stickers. One is for XLT models, one for higher trims.
I will see if I can find then after lunch.

Something like "post your payload sticker" is the title.


Edit: here is the Lariat thread

With a KR F150, you could probably handle a 7k TT, but it will be pretty close to, if not maxed out.
Yep. It just depends on what the trailer hitch and WDH weigh combined. I can weigh them in my RV pad and make adjustments. It's great to have the resources of Ford fans here on this forum. Thank you.

Would be nice. When experimenting with the builds, I discovered that the King Ranch and Platinum were unavailable in the Supercab. It would have made this a no brainer. DW really, really insist on premium trims. Had a KR 150 in 2003, KR 250 in 2009, Ram Limited 2017 Dually 3500, and now an Aviator Black Label w/Mahogany Red leather. The only sacrifice she has ever made was on a 2016 Mini Cooper S Countryman. It fits her, is Georgia Bulldog red & black. To me, it's the most harsh, loud, painful auto to drive. Run flat tires and tight suspension painful!! I made her look at the Lariat. I thought it was fine w/4x2, Supercab and all the fixns. Just was not plush enough for DW. Was shocked that the 3.5eco was $1400 extra in it.

I was answering a post talking about trucks with HDPP. All XLT 301A and lower ordered with the HDPP are, as I said, 8' Box for regular cab and Super Cab and 6.5' box for Super Crew.

Limited is only even offered in the 5'5" bed too.

If you go with a King Ranch now, it's better than all the others except MAYBE that Ram 3500.

A KR 600A, 4X2, 5'5", Max Tow, 5.0 or 3.5EB with no other options should put you in the 1700lbish payload range.

Just another idea, you are in a towing thread, you also might post in the general 21+ F150 Forum, I bet a Title like: High trims, what's your payload? Would get some additional info for you

I sent him to the Lariat payload sticker thread earlier.
