Powertrain Choices

There are seven powertrain options for the 2023 Ford F-150. To get the maximum available towing power, you'll want your F-150 to come with the available 3.5-liter EcoBoost twin-turbo V-6 to unlock the towing capacity of 14,000 pounds. The V6 engine can produce 400 horsepower and 500 pound-feet of torque to deliver one of the highest towing capacities available for a truck this size.

Axle Ratio

Axle ratio is a determining factor as to how much power from the engine gets to the wheels. The F-150 has an optional heavy-duty trailer package with the appropriate rear axle ratio to handle large trailers.

Bed and Cabin Design Options

With three bed and cabin sizes, the Ford F-150 is extremely versatile, but changing the body style can impact your towing and payload capacities. Each configuration provides a different range of capabilities, so be sure to speak with our experts at Lynch Ford to ensure you choose the right cab and bed sizes to maintain the towing capacity you need.

What is the 2023 F-150 Towing Capacity?

The 2023 Ford F-150 can tow up to a whopping 14,000 pounds when properly equipped. To max out the towing capacity, you'll need the 3.5-liter EcoBoost option, a SuperCrew or Super Cab, and the 6.5-foot bed. In order to tow the largest trailers, you'll want to outfit your F-150 with the heavy-duty trailering package, which will provide you with rear-wheel drive and a 3.73 axle ratio.

If you don't necessarily need that much power, even the base F-150 models will deliver outstanding towing capacity to handle most drivers' needs.
