New Ford Trucks Towing Capacity

The 2024 Ford Maverick®, a compact yet capable truck, has an optional towing upgrade that surprises many in its class. The base model is powered by a 2.0 EcoBoost® engine, which offers a standard towing capacity of 1,500 pounds. However, for those looking to haul more weight, opting for the available 2.0L EcoBoost® engine along with the 4K Tow Package bumps the towing capacity up to a respectable 4,000 pounds.

This increased towing capability allows the Maverick® to pull small trailers, jet skis, or even compact campers, making it a versatile option for adventurers and small-scale towing needs. Additionally, its lightweight and smaller footprint compared to other trucks in the lineup provide excellent maneuverability, especially in urban environments. The Maverick® delivers a well-rounded performance for drivers seeking fuel efficiency without compromising on towing power.

The 2024 Ford F-150®, the backbone of Ford's truck lineup, remains one of the most capable full-size pickups on the market, particularly when it comes to towing. The F-150® can be tailored to various towing needs, from light-duty to heavy-duty tasks, with a range of engine options. The base 2.7L EcoBoost® V6 engine offers a towing capacity of up to 7,500 pounds, while the 5.0L V8 engine increases that to 12,900 pounds when properly configured.

However, the true standout is the 3.5L EcoBoost V6, which pushes the F-150's maximum towing capacity to 13,500 pounds. This makes the F-150 an excellent choice for those regularly towing large trailers, boats, or construction equipment. The truck's towing features, such as Pro Trailer Backup Assist, Smart Hitch, and onboard scales, make towing even easier, allowing for precise load management and stress-free handling in challenging conditions.

For those needing the ultimate towing machine, the 2024 Ford Super Duty® lineup is unmatched in its power and capability. With multiple engine options, including a 6.8L V8, a 7.3L V8, and a 6.7L Power Stroke Turbo Diesel V8, the Super Duty® can tow staggering amounts of weight. The maximum conventional towing capacity of the Super Duty® is an incredible 14,800 pounds when equipped with a diesel engine and proper configurations. The Gooseneck Tow Package towing capacity reaches up to 40,000 pounds for even heavier towing.

This makes the Super Duty® the truck of choice for those in the construction, agriculture, and transport industries, where hauling massive loads is a daily requirement. The available Pro Trailer Hitch Assist makes hitching up large trailers more accessible than ever, and onboard safety systems such as Trailer Sway Control and Trailer Brake Controller ensure that even the heaviest loads can be towed safely and efficiently.
