The Ford F-150 full-size pickup truck has a best-in-class towing capacity that appeals to the most demanding drivers around Princeton. The maximum towing capacity depends on the number of passengers, towing and trailering accessories, and, most importantly, the engine configuration you select at our Granville area dealership.

  • The muscular 5.0-liter Ti-VCT V8 engine, optional on some trims with its 400 horsepower and 410 pound-feet of torque, maxes out at around 12,900 pounds.

  • The high-performance F-150 Raptor R trim, which generates 720 horsepower and 640 pound-feet of torque on the strength of a 5.2-liter V6 engine, can tow a maximum of 8,700 pounds.

Besides the raw towing capacity, the Ford F-150 trucks on our Peru area sales lot have several standard and optional features to make towing around La Salle and Ottawa easier. The smart hitch and onboard scales measure the trailer's weight as implemented. The pro trailer hitch assist automatically guides the F-150 into place while hitching. The dynamic hitch assist helps you align your truck with the trailer on the screen. The smart trailer tow connector issues a warning when the trailer requires attention.

It can be difficult to estimate the towing capacity of your vehicle because bed and cab size can potentially change the numbers. Spring Valley Ford can help you make sense of your options. Contact us today to learn more about your options and take a test drive through Spring Valley.
