For generations the Ford F-150 has personified toughness and capability. It’s built to carry lots of cargo and get you through the toughest driving conditions. Just how much can this American icon haul? Gilbert and Baugh Ford finds out.
To show drivers, businesses, and truck-lovers in Albertville, Gadsden, and Huntsville, AL, what it can do for you, we looked at the 2021 Ford F-150 towing capacity.
Ford F-150 Towing & Specs
With lots of power under the hood, the 2021 Ford F-150 can tow a best-in-class 14,000 pounds. That’s enough to hitch a heavy trailer to your truck and bring a camper on your next family vacation. To give you that kind of towing capacity, the F-150 offers six exciting powertrains.
The 3.5L EcoBoost® V6 is your best bet to haul a big trailer. It can get up to 400 horsepower and 500 lb-ft of torque. A 5.0L V8 is also available to offer a similar performance, with 400 horsepower and 410 lb-ft of torque.
The 2021 F-150 also offers a couple of alternative options. For example, the 3.0L Power Stroke® V6 is a turbocharged diesel engine that delivers an efficient 250 horsepower and 440 lb-ft of torque.
To get the best fuel economy, the F-150 even offers a 3.5L PowerBoost™ Full Hybrid V6. It can cover a lot of ground before you’ll need to stop for gas. Plus, this hybrid truck offers a best-in-class 430 horsepower and 570 lb-ft of torque.
Ford F-150 Trailering Features
On top of being able to transport everything you need, the 2021 Ford F-150 offers features that’ll make towing safe and easy. For example, the Rearview Camera with Dynamic Hitch Assist helps you line up with your trailer, while the available 360-Degree Camera lets you check every angle of your truck.
While you’re on the road, the Smart Trailer Tow Connector can keep you up to date on your trailer battery and brake lights. You can also be confident when you’re changing lanes, thanks to BLIS® (Blind Spot Information System) with Trailer Coverage and Cross-Traffic Alert.
Once you arrive at your destination, Pro Trailer Backup Assist™ and Trailer Reverse Guidance can help you drop your cargo off in the right spot. With more camera angles and a simple steering knob, it’s easy to unload.
Truck Bed & Payload
From its powerful engines to its strong frame, the Ford F-150 is always ready to carry a heavy payload, too. The truck bed and cargo box are built from a high-strength, military-grade, aluminum alloy, so you can carry a best-in-class payload of 3,325 pounds.
To help you load up, the F-150 offers stowable loading ramps and a tailgate step. Once you’ve got everything on board, you can use the four BoxLink™ with premium locking cleats to tie everything down. If you need to go over your order or your itinerary first, drop the tailgate down and use the built-in workbench. Once you’re on the road, you can check on your cargo anytime using the available cargo box camera.
