Like was said. That's what your truck weighs. Is it an XL base model or a Platinum, or something in between? It's all in the options and it's sticker GVWR on the truck subtracted from all those fancy "options"... :)
I have a whimpy 13 F150 with a GVWR of #7700 in the XLT trim with the additional 302a package and it has a yellow sticker payload of #1920.. I looked at some other F150's on the lot when I bought mine and found a Platinum optioned truck with only #7050 GVWR and it's yellow sticker was a whimpy #850... Yes, #850...
I have weighed my truck and with me and a full tank of gas, it was pretty much over by my fat ass 220# weight when I went to the dump..
Anyway, in the end, your truck weighs what it weighs, whether if it's an 150, 250, 350, 450, 550...... You get the idea...
Go from there with your own weight tolerances and you will likely be fine... :)
