New to forum with towing capacity questions

Hi all:

My husband and I are in the process of researching travel trailers. We would be towing it with a 2015 Ford 150 3.5L Eco Boost Super Crew 5'5" bed/145 wheel base, axle 3.55. We went to a dealer today and of course were told we could tow just about anything. We are trying to determine what is true and real. Can anyone provide any information? We were told on another message board about 7,000 lbs. is a realistic number but my husband does not quite believe the number to be higher and our calculations are not in agreement. I'd be happy to provide additional information as able.

Thank you.

Just happen to have my little handy dandy Ford towing capacity sheet right here.
So Depending on which 145" WB Super crew you have. Your tow rating ranges from 7300lbs with a 4x4 with a GCWR of 13,300. to 9800lbs with a 4x2 with a GCWR of 15,500lb. You just need to find out WHICH 145" WB 3.5 Ecoboost, 3.55 rear, F150 you have. It should be in the manual.. And look on the door post to find your GVWR. The higher your GVWR, The higher your tow capacity.
GVWRs start at 7100, and go to 8200lb. yours we hope, is somewhere in the middle

How do you get a list? Easy. Drop by the Ford store, and tell a salesman to print you off a copy of the Technical Specifications. You will have all the information you will ever need for your truck. That is how I got mine
