I would recommend staying as small as you can with any F150..

Apparently you are not aware of the HDPP package. Mine has a heavier frame, LT tires, rotors almost identical to a 2500, springs and shocks rated to handle the 2,560 payload it has. That’s more payload than some 2500’s

Yes I understand that the OP doesn’t have that package.

But by saying ANY, your brush stroke is much too large.

:R

Don't tell my 2013 F250 this, it's payload is 3415 lbs and my newest ride, a 2019 F250 has EVEN MORE payload (something like 3600 lbs)..

You are ALSO "painting with a broad brush".

A typical AND common misconception of the F150/1500 crowd..

It is true that you can get a highly loaded AND correctly optioned F150 with a SLIGHT bit more payload than a DIESEL F250 but in the end you WILL PAY MORE for that highly loaded AND correctly optioned F150..

If I remember correctly, to get max tow and max payload F150 it required Eco boost and a few other knick nacks, pushes the price of that combination OVER what I paid for my XLT Gas F250 and I get over 900 lbs more payload to boot.

A $60K F150 with 2500 lbs capacity OR a $43K F250 with 3400 lbs capacity.. No brainer for me, the F250 wins every time :B

Not having to count potato chips every time I want to tow is priceless..
