My 2014 F150 XLT Supercab 4x4 with Ecoboost and MaxTow and the HD package has a payload of 2,286#.
The longer length and 4x4 takes a toll on the cargo capacity.
And you don't have the Al body.
GVWR lowered to 7800 on Al body trucks.
True, but that's only a 400# reduction in GVWR from the old 8200#.
And they're claiming a 700# weight reduction with the Al body, for SCrew trucks anyway. So maybe a 300# payload improvement for SCrew in 2015 and above?
700 lbs is the best case scenario, kind of like the brochure payload which never happens. Probably on the 8 foot regular cab. I'm sure most trucks aren't seeing a 700 lb reduction. Everyone expected higher Ford payloads with the lighter trucks, but the lowering of the GVWR's pretty much took care of that. I would guess maybe a hundred higher on average.
