Stopped by the ford dealer today they had 3 2015 F-150s in stock 2 3.5 ecoboost and a 5.0 all xlt trim. I was suprised the payload of the 3.5's was 1920 lbs. 1920 for a standard payload truck they did not have max trailer tow nor the HD payload package either. This is in the equal now of a 250 diesel truck. The trucks werent loaded but not stripped either. Crew cab 6.5 ft bed. Huge flow thru center consol. Heated seats and I like the new 8 inch lcd screen too. And the large in dash screen with back up cam is nice too. Power slide rear window too. Id love to know the payload on a lariat with the HD payload package.....has anyone seen one of those yet?

They look very impressive.

Here is what I ordered:2015 XLT, SuperCrew, 4X4, 3.5L EcoBoost, 6.5' bedBronze FireMax Tow & HD PayloadTow Mirrors & Rear View Camera According to the Ford Charts, as this truck is built:Payload @ 2,650#Towing @ 11,500#

Wow danager with 2650 lbs of payload you will be able to tow every bit of that 11500 lbs with plenty of payload left for you and your family. I wonder what the hitch restrictions are....I know my f-150 now it maxed out at 1050 lbs.

2650 Payload fully optioned?? wow what was done to the truck other then going to aluminum to gain that much payload?

"Power slide rear window"... I don't think I've opened the rear window in my F250 in over 5 years - I just opened it when I got it to check it out. I wouldn't pay extra for that option if you can avoid it. Is this one of the new aluminum F-150 trucks?

I use mine as well. It is great if you don't like to run the AC all the time. We usually don't use the AC much when traveling.

When I open my sun roof , I open the rear window... It equalizes the air and gets a perfect flow! ... did not have one (was hard to put gun racks up with them).. got one and now both my trucks have them...

the 6.7 is a beast!!! I enjoyed the 6.4 and it was mostly problematic with the exception of a ton of regens... I did not think that I would notice anything different.. I was wrong... It has a certain feel about it.. the way it pulls off the line towing.. up the hills towing... SO FAR SO GOOD.... Very happy with the decision..
