Always request the weights are applied to the other side (inside) of the wheel. Who wants to see them even if applied without scuffing up the rim....

Your not talking about what is referred as Adaptive. There 3 things possible on 2021, on upper level trims. 1. Automatic High Beam - I believe this is what you are referring to. When you are driving above 32mph and no oncoming traffic and no cars in front of you, it will go to high beam...

Didn't mention it before, but I have spray-in bed liner, but also the Ford rubber mat. I think the mat only adds 30 to 40lbs. And of course it can be taken out. Rubber mat does prevent most stuff from moving around much (i.e. if I put suitcases, etc,) UNLESS I have a panic stop... Finally on my...

If you looking for something to mainly hold groceries and smaller stuff temporarily I use something like this (you can get an over-priced version from Ford Accessories, but if you have points to burn...). You can put it in the bed or in the rear seat. Has a small cold bag (I bring that in the...

Not sure. I know the 4x4 adds 2" in height at the rear (tailgate height) over 4x2. Also believe the Max Tow adds a 3rd leaf to the leaf springs.

Don't need a Class D in FL for any F-150s, none are over 8k lbs. And as long as trailer is under 26k, regular DL is all you need. For F250 and up you could depending on payload you are carrying in the truck.

That is that hitch assemblies max rating which is used across numerous trim and tow and engine options., not your truck's rating. If your in a Short Bed SuperCrew 4WD Max Tow XLT with 5.0V8 then your Max Tow is 13K. If the 3.5L EcoBoost then is 13.9k. With PowerBoost it's 12.4k.

Have the vertical not the horizontal, but they look similar in contruction. The webbing is very thin cord and even the structure cord around the edges is not that heavy. The both say "lightweight" loads in the description. Don't believe stacked firewood would be appropriate. For bigger loads I...

Well to be precise the 14k number on the hitch frame is speaking ONLY to the hitch frame capability (with a WDH), does NOT mean your truck is capable of 14k.... as we were just calculating in the other posts. For an assembly (the whole truck) to have a Max spec ALL the parts that go into the...

Meaning without using a WDH. For over 5k have to use a WDH. Your calculated As Built Curb is supposed to include all fluids, including full tank of gas. So you don't have to include that in the additions to get to Actual Curb Weight. So that's 216lb than can be subtracted from your Actual Curb...

In the Tech Specs document (attached in post#5, but also available elsewhere). Assuming you are a Short Bed and NOT a 4WD, then: GVWR = 7050 from your sticker Payload = 1739 from your sticker As Built Curbweight = 5311 from (7050-1739) Actual Curbweight = 5311 plus estimates of what you...

Right and yours is very close, so not as much as an issue, but others need to understand the Hitch rating printed on the label on your Hitch is NOT your Max Tow rating. It is the rating of the Hitch which is used on many variations of the F150. In your case your actual vehicle Max Tow Rating is...

Not sure I follow, or just didn't catch if it was sarcasm... For your truck then your Max Payload is on your door sticker. Your GVWR is on your other door sticker. Your Max Towing is 10,400lbs. And your GCWR is 15,800lbs. This assumes you have the "normal" 3.73 rear end (Axle Ratio). This also...

Everyone gets concerned about the cannister on a retractable (I've had both, tri-fold and now Retrax). The cannister is up in the air, so it does NOT prevent putting long wood, plywood sheets, suitcases, bricks, dirt, etc. in the bed. It's not like the installed tool boxes that take up floor to...

Pg 9-12 of the document attached a couple of posts back. Your sig says you Lariat SCREW 5.0L so your Max Tow is between 9,300 to 13,000 depending on bed length, 4WD or not, and Tow pkg you have. 9,300 is long bed, 4x4 without Max Tow Pkg. 13,000 basically any bed or drive with the Max Tow...

Haven't had mine in a rain storm yet, but some thoughts. Puddle near tailgate, not sure where you mean exactly, but you might be amazed how much "daylight" there is around the sides of the tailgate to the sides of the truck. Nothing to do with the tonneau cover. Could be from there. Lots of...

Your GVWR + Max Tow Rating will always be less than GCVWR, by the amount of optional Payload. Reason: Max Tow Rating assumes minimum Payload usage on Truck. IOW, you get max payload plus some towing or you get minimum payload (150lb driver usually) plus max towing. So in your case, you stated...

Yes power tailgate opens and shuts automatically just fine with Retrax Pro XR. The distance from bed floor to the majority of the cover is 21". But at the very end of the cover on each side is the latching mechanism that sticks down another 1/2". So on each side at the end of the cover it's...

Everyone is different. But I've purchased around 20 vehicles in the last 25 years (mine, spouse, kids, etc). Always buy new and NEVER buy off the lot... why, cause I want what I want (color, options, trim, etc). Also I know more about the vehicle before I walk in then any salesman I every dealt...

Yep, I bet a lot of tow'ers buy a hitch and do it themself, without really understand WD (if they even are using a WDH. Also still today 2022 (as many have observed in other posts), I can't find a RV Salesman that has ANY comprehension of Payload and payload rating and the vehicle GVWR. I was...
