Ford Truck Towing Comparison

The Ford Maverick

The Ford Maverick shakes things up. It’s the first standard hybrid pickup truck on the market. Although the Maverick prioritizes efficiency, this hybrid hauler can keep up with the big dogs.

When properly equipped, the Maverick can tow up to 4,000 pounds when properly equipped, which equates to:

• A couple jet skis
• A lightweight travel trailer
• A utility trailer with a few snowmobiles

If you need to haul adventure equipment in the cargo bed, the Maverick supplies a 1,500-pound maximum payload. Pair this with its six tie-downs, a multi-position tailgate, and a standard Flexbed™ system, and all your gear will be safe and snug.

The Ford Ranger

The Ford Ranger is backed by decades of adventure. A little dirt on its tires? No biggie. A few splashes of mud on the doors? Consider that war paint. The Ranger takes on all-terrain like a beast. What about towing?

When properly equipped, the Ranger can tow up to 7,500 pounds, which equates to:

• A small hard-side RV
• A small recreational boat

Plus, that’s plenty of pulling power to bring your trusty 4-wheeler to the trails! However, if you prefer to explore Mother Nature in the Ranger, its available Tremor® off-road package will instill confidence in you as you forge ahead. Its 1,905-pound maximum payload ensures you can bring all your equipment along, too.

The Ford F-150

Oh, we know you know this truck. The Ford F-150 is unmistakable on the road, at the job site, and on adventures. Although this behemoth is identified as a light-duty truck, it makes light work out of its maximum 14,000-pound towing capacity when properly equipped, which equates to:

• All but the largest camping trailers
• A large recreational boat
• A race-car hauling box

The F-150 also has magic in its cargo bed. On top of its impressive 3,325-pound maximum payload capacity, this truck has available Pro Power Onboard to bring you electricity on the go. So, when you need to electrify your power tools or start up your coffeemaker while camping, the F-150 is ready for the job.

The Ford F-150 Lightning

The F-150 name you know and love has gone all-electric. The Ford F-150 Lightning implodes your expectations of what an all-electric vehicle can do. Sure, it can travel far distances on a single charge. It can also carry a 10,000-pound towing capacity, which equates to:

• 25-foot-plus camping trailer
• Large boat
• 2-horse trailer

Between its 2,235-pound maximum payload, its Mega Power Frunk, and its Intelligent Backup Power feature, the F-150 Lightning delivers power that keeps on giving.
