If your looking at new then remember MaxTow is not Heavy Duty payload or Max Payload.
MaxTow is a step above reg tow and comes with 3.73 gears and the payload ranges in the 17-1850lb range.
Heavy Duty payload gives you and extra 500lbs or so of payload and puts it in the 21-2300lb range.
I'd opt for the Heavy Duty payload and then you'll have plenty of truck if youwant to upgrade.
The HD Payload on my 13 is 2,592#. Better than some 3/4 ton!
That's pretty good. I know it can be as high as 3000lb in a reg cab 2wd. Just going by what guys have posted on here and the F150 forums.
It's more than my Ram 2500. Mines at 2176lbs. But where 3/4 tons have the advantage is the RAWR. Yours is only 4800lbs. Mines 6000lbs and limited to tires. Gotta say though the HD F150's are a good alternative to a 3/4 ton truck.
