I have the heaviest, most optioned F-150 Ford makes. A 2011 Harley Davidson edition, supercrew, all wheel drive, 22" wheels with the 6.2L engine. My payload (1,148 lbs) is still 300lbs more than the Ram ecodiesel.
No, the heaviest most optioned F-150 Ford makes is the Raptor. There is an Edmunds article on a 2011 that I read recently that listed the Raptor payload of 993 lb. Either way, this is a thread on the Ecodiesel.
