This looks like an excellent truck. My pick would be the 3.5 turbo 4x4. That would easily handle my camper. Glad to see all of these now have a decent payload; I just don't see the point of having a pickup truck that can't pickup anything meaningful because of its limited payload. Hopefully it will also mean that those people who buy one then decide they want a truck camper won't be as disappointed as previous half ton pick-up owners when they found their 1500 lb or lower payload was a real limitation when considering a camper.

I agree, Steve. This is has been brought up so many times here on this forum. So many guys have been disappointed to hear that their short-bed 1/2-ton is severely limited on what it can haul. At least now with the new F-150 they'll have some decent choices that involve more than just a tiny pop-up without a wet bath. The long-bed F-150s should have even more payload.
