All specifications are based on Ford Motor Company published data for U.S.-market vehicles (2011–2025 model years). Towing and payload capacities represent maximum available ratings for optimally configured trucks; your specific vehicle's ratings may differ. Always consult the vehicle's door-jamb sticker, owner's manual, and an authorized Ford dealer for precise specifications. Upfitter-installed bodies may affect rated capacities.
