Building a Ford F-150-HD payload?
I've been on the Ford website a couple times to build the F-150 that I'd be interested in but I can't seem to find any choice for payload or GVWR? Maybe I'm missing it? Anyone else notice this? I've c...

harmank,
What is your curb weight and what is your milage empty? When the 6.7 was still offered in the F150 the EPA ratings indicated that it burned a lot more fuel than the 3.5Ecoboost. That and weight is what kept me in the F150, not cost. The cost difference was minor as you observe. Also, the last time I checked you can get a lot of the features that are not available on a F150 max paylod on the F250.
Curb wait should be 7645 (10000-2355) before the bed liner and tonneau went on (another 100 for the two).
Only about 400 on it so far, so mileage is questionable, but out on the highway I had the meter showing 18.5 and climbing on a 200 mile round trip (72-73 MPH) That's as good or better than the Expedition it replaced
On the legal paper, I'm limited to 10000, but the combined axle weights add up to 11540. Which gives me a fair bit play on where the weight gets placed.
The bed height is noticable. I am left thinking that over 60 months that tailgate step (400 dollar option) would have been under 7 dollars a month .
