I would like to know how many F150 owners went with the Heavy Duty Payload Package as well and whether you think I need it given our trailer.
Here are the stats on the trailer I'm pulling:
Unloaded: 6441 lbs
Loaded: 7600 lbs
Hitch: 966
...
The Ecoboost is awesome. I have the MaxTow with ~2050# payload in a 4x2, but I wish I had the HD payload. Ended up adding LT tires, beefing up the suspension (shocks+springs) to improve the ride, and now I'm right at the rear GAWR. Part of the problem is that all my trailers have a high tongue weight (15%). HD Payload would have fixed all that. I would get it.
