When it comes to towing heavy loads, having the right truck is essential. 1/2-ton pickup trucks are some of the most popular and versatile options on the market, offering a balance of capability and everyday usability. And when it comes to the best 1/2-ton truck for towing, the 2024 Ford F-150 stands out from the pack with its impressive 13,500-pound maximum towing capacity.
At Bob Allen Ford in Overland Park, we're proud to offer the full lineup of capable, hard-working Ford trucks. Our knowledgeable sales team is here to help you find the perfect F-150 configuration to meet your towing needs. Whether you're in Overland Park or Mission, we're just a short drive away.
2024 Ford F-150 Towing Capabilities
So what makes the 2024 Ford F-150 such a towing powerhouse? It starts with the available 3.5-liter EcoBoost six-cylinder engine, which pumps out an impressive 400 horsepower and 500 pound-feet of torque. When properly equipped with the Max Trailer Tow Package, this setup allows the F-150 to tow up to 13,500 pounds.
But it's not just about raw power - the F-150 is also loaded with towing-friendly features to make hauling heavy loads safer and easier. Pro Trailer Backup Assist, for example, makes it simple to back up a trailer using a dial on the dash and the backup camera. The Blind Spot Information System with Trailer Coverage monitors your blind spots, even when towing.
Choosing the Right F-150 For Towing
To get the F-150's maximum 13,500-pound tow rating, you'll need to choose the right configuration. The SuperCrew cab with the 6.5-foot bed and 4x4 is the way to go, along with the 3.5-liter EcoBoost six-cylinder engine and Max Trailer Tow Package. This setup not only provides the highest tow rating but also gives you a spacious, comfortable cabin for long hauls.
Of course, your towing needs may not require quite that much capability. The sales team at Bob Allen Ford in Overland Park can help you determine the right F-150 setup based on the types of loads you typically tow. We'll make sure you drive away with a truck that's up to the task without going overboard.
