Did F-150 towing change for 2025?

Compare the cited 2025 figures on this page with the 2024 record. They are stored separately.

What tongue weight should I plan for a 2025 F-150?

At the cited 13,500 lb conventional maximum, an illustrative 10% assumption produces 1,350 lb of tongue weight. This is not a recommended percentage or a measurement; follow your trailer and vehicle instructions and measure the actual load. That load counts against payload and the rear axle rating.

Bed, tongue weight, and wheelbase

The trailer rating is one limit. The bed has to fit the load, the tongue or pin has to fit in payload, and the wheelbase is the column the chart uses.

An illustrative 10 percent of the 13,500 lb conventional maximum is 1,350 lb of tongue weight. This is not a measured load or recommended percentage; actual load may be higher. The payload figure on file is 2,440 lb, and it is not the same truck unless the configurations match.

Generation

Fourteenth generation

2025 is year 5 of this generation (2021–2026). Redesigned for 2021, with the PowerBoost hybrid added that year. A 2024 update stayed on this generation. The 2026 towing guide is the cited chart for the newest year, and it does not apply backward.
