2022 Ford F-150 Towing Capacity

Towing & Hauling Capacities

When properly equipped, the 2022 Ford F-150 has a best-in-class maximum towing capacity of 14,000 pounds. If you opt for the F-150’s available hybrid powertrain, this model can still tow 12,700 pounds.

The Ford F-150 doesn’t stop there, though. This model can also handle quite a bit of weight in the cargo bed. The F-150 can haul 3,325 pounds of best-in-class payload weight when properly configured.

Powerful Engine Options

In order to accomplish such immense towing tasks, the 2022 Ford F-150 has to provide some serious power. That isn’t a problem for this model as it offers six high-performance engines in its powertrain lineup. See how they perform and compare to one another below:

As you can see, no matter which engine you go with, you’ll have plenty of power to tow what you want with ease.

Working together with these engines, you’ll find a standard 10-speed automatic transmission. It offers smooth and easy shifts for exciting rides and enhanced acceleration. You’ll even get three overdrive gears to help you with heavier loads.

Helpful Towing & Hauling Equipment

On top of the many powerful engines that the 2022 Ford F-150 offers, it also provides various helpful towing features. The standard Rear View Camera with Dynamic Hitch Assist will help you line up your trailer to your hitch, for starters.

This feature will give you a clear view of what is behind your truck as you back up. Simply follow the Dynamic Hitch Assist guidelines that can help you line your trailer up to your truck for quick and easy hitching.

Backing up your trailer can be tricky since you are essentially trying to control two separate things: your trailer and your truck. With the 2022 F-150, you’ll have access to the available Pro Trailer Backup Assist™ feature, which allows you to steer your trailer with the turn of a knob. It can control the steering wheel to direct your trailer in the direction you want it to go. Backing up with a trailer has never been easier.

You can also opt for the F-150’s available BLIS® (Blind Spot Information System) with Cross-Traffic Alert and Trailer Coverage. With this system, you can monitor the blind spots of both your truck and your trailer to help avoid collisions with other vehicles that you cannot see.

Controlled Handling When Towing

While towing, certain systems in the 2022 F-150 will help you confidently and safely navigate the roads. Standard trailer sway control, which works with AdvanceTrac™  with RSC® (Roll Stability Control™), can keep your trailer stable as you drive along any road.

Available is an integrated trailer brake controller. This feature makes sure that the brakes of the truck and the trailer work seamlessly together when you need to slow down smoothly or come to a stop.

Even when towing at night, the Ford F-150 will give you great visibility wherever you go. The standard Auto High-Beam Headlamps will turn on when needed and turn off when an oncoming car approaches.

Stay Aware of Your Performance While Towing

The available 12-inch Digital Productivity Screen offers a clean and modern look at how your truck is performing. It also displays a long list of updated information on how the F-150 is driving. See your fuel economy history, oil life, and engine temperature displayed on the screen.

You can also customize the screen to show data specific to your towing, such as steering angle and the status of your lights. You can even go through a checklist of what you need to do when connecting your trailer. This way, you’ll have the peace of mind that your trailer is correctly connected and everything is safe and ready to go!

More Ways to Bring Along Cargo

Besides towing, there are also other ways you can bring along your gear with the 2022 Ford F-150. Inside the SuperCrew cabin, you can flip up the second-row seats and use the space in the back row for supplies and tools you need to take with you.

There are also three different cargo boxes you can choose from to attach to your truck’s cabin. Along with its payload capacity, the different bed configurations of the 2022 F-150 provide a lot of room to carry your gear.

The 5.5-foot cargo box has 52.8 cubic feet of cargo volume. With the 6.5-foot cargo box, you will have 62.3 cubic feet of cargo volume. At its maximum, the Ford F-150 supplies its drivers with 77.4 cubic feet of cargo volume in its 8-foot cargo box.

To help secure cargo in your truck bed, the Ford F-150 is available with BoxLink™. BoxLink™ is an interface system that uses various aftermarket Ford accessories, like storage bins, dividers, ramps, and more, to secure your cargo. You can make sure it stays by securing it to the side of the truck bed.
