This is the door jamb stickers for the new F150... My Dad's 1971 F250 only has a GVWR of #6900! How's that for changing times! :)

No doubt a nice looking truck, a few more pictures would be nice, but wow, looking at your door sticker 7,700# GVWR, FGAWR 3,750, and RGAWR 4,050 total axle rating 7,800# or a GVWR that is 98.7% of total axle. Unless you have a V8 in that thing you will exceed the rear axle rating before getting to the GVWR.
Interesting, you likely can't get to GVWR without overloading the rear axle, I can be well over GVWR and still have close to 1,000 available on the rear axle.
Not slamming a very nice truck, just WOW, that Ford you put you in a situation like that.
