A 2017 F-150 with a regular cab and 8' box is available with 3270 pounds of payload. A crewcab with a 6.5' box is available with 2910 pounds. A crewcab with a 5.5 foot box and 4WD, which seems the most popular configuration, can have 2100 pounds of payload. These are formidable payloads.
The new 3.5 Ecoboost has 375 HP and 470 torque. Again, very formidable.
Now I challenge you to go find these vehicles on a dealers lot or anywhere else for that matter. Vehicles equipped with these payload rating are very rare.
Proclaiming the 8700 dry trailer 1/2 ton towable maybe technically correct. However the fine print should say " You will have to factory order your 1/2 ton in order to buy one rated/equipped to do the job.:S
