Verified 2026-08-14 against the Ford 2024 RV & Trailer Towing Guide. Per-engine summary table. Ford's own selector table lists 12,900 lb for the 5.0L; we publish the lower summary figure of 12,000.
What that actually means loaded
Towing the full 13,500 lb puts roughly 1,620 lb on the hitch at a typical 12% tongue weight. Against the 2024 Ford F-150's best-case payload of 2,445 lb, that leaves about 825 lb for passengers, fuel, gear and the weight-distributing hitch itself — which is why most half-tons run out of payload before they run out of towing capacity.
That calculation uses the maximum payload figure, which belongs to a stripped work-truck configuration. A loaded crew cab of the same model year typically carries several hundred pounds less. Read the yellow label in your door jamb — it gives your truck's real number, not the brochure's.
Common questions
How much can a 2024 Ford F-150 tow?
Up to 13,500 lb with the 3.5L EcoBoost V6, configured as SuperCrew 4x2, 3.55 axle, Max Trailer Tow Package. The lowest-rated engine that year, the 3.5L High-Output EcoBoost V6 (Raptor), tows 8,200 lb. Your truck's own rating depends on cab, bed, drivetrain and axle ratio.
What is the payload of a 2024 Ford F-150?
Maximum payload for the 2024 Ford F-150 is 2,445 lb in its highest-payload configuration. That figure covers passengers, cargo and trailer tongue weight combined, so pulling a 13,500 lb trailer at 12% tongue weight uses about 1,620 lb of it before anyone gets in the truck.
Does a 2024 Ford F-150 need a tow package to reach its maximum?
Yes. Peak ratings assume the factory tow package — the upgraded hitch receiver, wiring, transmission cooling and in most cases a specific axle ratio. A truck without it is rated substantially lower even with the same engine.
