Ford F-350 payload capacity
The highest listed Ford F-350 payload capacity in the current data is 7,650 lb, but your exact truck may be lower depending on trim, options, cab, bed, drivetrain, accessories, and factory packages. Door-sticker payload is the number to use for real towing because passengers, cargo, hitch equipment, and tongue weight all reduce remaining payload.
