The Ford F-Series is engineered for high performance and serious muscle. From the versatile F-150 to the heavy-duty F-450 and chassis cabs, these trucks offer advanced towing features, powerful engine options, and rugged construction to handle whatever you need to pull.

Here's a quick look at the towing and payload capacities across the F-Series lineup:

Each Ford F-Series truck usually comes with different engine options. This means that the towing capabilities you can achieve will depend heavily on how you configure your truck. Choosing the right setup ensures your truck delivers the strength and control you need.

Configuration really makes all the difference when you're towing. For the heavy-duty trucks in the F-Series lineup (such as the F-250 and Super Duty models), Ford offers a Trailer Tow Package, which includes upgraded hitch wiring, a hitch receiver, trailer sway control, and other necessary gear to get the truck ready to tow. If you're pulling a 5th-wheel or gooseneck trailer, there's also a Gooseneck/5th-Wheel Prep Package that features factory-installed pucks (for easy hitch installation) and the required structural and wiring components for a safe setup.

For the F-150, Ford's Max Trailer Tow Package remains the way to reach that headline 13,500 lb towing capacity — when properly equipped (engine, axle, bed, drive-train, and the package itself). The standard Trailer Tow Package (on F-150 and other models) still provides the key basics: hitch enhancements, trailer wiring, a smart trailer connector, and sway control. If you'd like to explore which package and configuration best suit your load and trailer, our team is ready to walk you through all the options.
