Realistic cargo weight for full time living
Anyone have some realistic numbers on how much your cargo weight is for full time living? For 2 people. Truck Camper magazine says 725 in their buyer guide and they went over how to get that number...

FYI in the payload of the Ford trucks they deduct 150lbs per seating position. Check the brochure on the page where payloads are posted.
Thanks for the headsup. That would help tremendously. The issue is it is not clear which years they have done this.
I found a thread where in 2013 they did this: https://www.f150forum.com/f82/ford-giving-easter-egg-new-buyers-750-more-payload-pounds-456776/
but when looking at 2020, there is no indication: https://media.ford.com/content/dam/fordmedia/North%20America/US/product/2020/f-series-super-duty/2020-Super-Duty-Tech-Specs.pdf
Edit: I take it back. I looked at the brochure instead like you mentioned (https://www.ford.com/services/assets/Brochure?make=Ford&model=SuperDuty&year=2020&postalCode=94710) and it does say it takes into account a 150 pound driver.
Keep in mind it's not 150 pounds per seating position. Just the driver for 2020. Back in 2013 it was for each seating position.
