And the 2019 Ford F-150 has more engine options than any F-150 before, so it can tow anywhere from 5,000 to 13,200 pounds.

Youll need to select the right cab, engine, and package as PickupTrucks.com explains.

Lets dig into whats required to configure the F-150 to get the highest towing capacity and whats included in the Max Trailer Tow Package.

The EcoBoost engine produces 375 hp and 470 lb-ft of torque, paired with a 10-speed transmission.

Should you opt for four-wheel-drive, the tow rating drops to 12,900 pounds.

If you want the SuperCab with the 3.5-liter EcoBoost, 2WD, and 6.5-foot bed, the maximum capacity is 12,000 pounds.

A regular cab with 2WD, the 3.5-liter EcoBoost, and 8-foot bed will yield a tow rating of 12,100 pounds.

The extra weight decreases the weight used for a trailers tongue weight or for payload.

For example, a King Ranch trim F-150 with the 5.0-liter V8 engine weighs at least 600 pounds more than the XL weve described.

The upper trim truck tows 1,700 pounds less and also delivers 70 lb-ft fewer torque.

If you dont use this kind of hitch, the F-150 is limited to a maximum capacity of 5,000 pounds.

They are the only variants powered by the high-output 3.5-liter Ecoboost turbocharged V6, which churns out 450 hp and 510 lb-ft of torque.

As with other F-150 upper trims, the extra weight of additional options is reflected in a lower towing rating.

The max towing capacity for the Limited only available in the SuperCrew configuration with the 5.5-foot bed is 11,100 pounds.

Choosing the 4WD option reduces the capacity to 9,400 pounds.

It includes everything the Max Trailer Tow Package has except for the trailer brake controller, big fuel tank, and front stabilizer bar.

For the Limiteds 2WD version with max towing capacity, expect to pay 69,725.

The SuperCrew cab style starts at 54, 540 and the SuperCab is priced at 57,435.

But now you know what it takes to get the best-in-class trailering capacity that this full-size truck offers.
