How Much Can the Ford F-150 Tow?
The tow rating on the 2021 Ford F-150 is incredible, maxing out at 14,000 pounds. All this is made possible due to the powerful 3.5-liter EcoBoost® V6 engine, featuring 400 horsepower and an impressive 500 lb-ft of torque.
Competitors simply can't compete with this best-in-class truck. Not only does its towing capacity outperform the others, but the 2021 iteration also introduces a hybrid motor for the first time ever in the full-size truck segment. This hybrid is no slouch either, with outputs of 430 horsepower, 570 lb-ft of torque, and 12,700 pounds of maximum towing capacity!
How Much Payload Can the Ford F-150 Handle?
In addition to towing, the other key component for overall capability in a full-size truck is the payload. Ford excels in this regard as well, with a maximum payload capacity of 3,325 pounds coming from its hulking V8 motor. If you stick with the V6 engine that offers maximum towing capacity, you'll still reach an impressive 3,250 pounds of payload!

- The Pro Trailer Backup Assist™, another class-exclusive, helps you maintain control of your trailer when you have to reverse.
- All you have to do is turn a knob on your console and the trailer will turn the direction you indicate.
