How Much Weight Can the Ford F-150 Carry?
It’s no surprise that the Ford F-150 has a reputation for being a mighty powerhouse of a pickup. With its strong and largely unchanged interior, the first pickup of the F-Series trucks is a formidable hauling machine.
One of the reasons it’s in the top range is because of its 3.5L EcoBoost V6 engine that delivers 450 HP horsepower and 510 lb-ft. of torque. In fact, it delivers the ideal amounts of power and torque for most heavy-duty towing tasks. Its fully boxed high-strength steel frame with a high-strength, military-grade, aluminum-alloy body all help the F-150 tow best-in-class maximum available 14,000 lbs. and deliver a best-in-class available payload rating of 3,325 lbs.
Below you’ll find the payload capacity for each trim and cab size.

The Bottom Line: Why is Knowing Your Truck's Payload Capacity Important?
Understanding how much weight your vehicle can haul is important for many reasons. One of them is the level of comfort that you will experience with the vehicle. It can also alter the performance of your pickup. And lets me be honest, you want your F-150 running at its optimal level!
For example, if your truck is overloaded, there is a greater chance of losing control and having an accident. Overheating can cause your tires to lose traction and can lead to a skid, which can be dangerous if you're driving on a highway.
Machinery and heavy cargo are also not good for your vehicle. Overloading is a bad habit. Stay within the recommended weight limits and you'll be fine!
