Official-source quick answer

Ford lists 13,500 lb max towing on a 2024 F-150 SuperCrew 6.5' box 4x4 with the available 3.5L V6, Tow/Haul Package, and optional Max Tow Axle. The highest conventional towing row extracted here is 13,500 lb. That is not a universal rating; it depends on the exact engine, axle ratio, cab, bed, drivetrain, tow equipment, payload, and hitch setup.

Ford states max payload varies by accessories and vehicle configuration; use the label on the doorjamb for the exact truck. Official Ford F-150 towing guide revised 06.11.24. Rows below combine the Ford engine summary, conventional towing selector, fifth-wheel/gooseneck selector, required-equipment notes, hitch table, frontal-area limits, and axle-code table.
