What is the towing capacity of the 2022 Ford Super Duty?

2022 Ford Super Duty maximum towing capacity 

What is the towing capacity of the 2022 Ford Super Duty? That depends on what type of towing you are doing, and we have a chart below that shows the maximum capacities for each type. You can find Ford Super Duty trucks here at Sherwood Ford in Sherwood Park, AB. 



2022 Ford Super Duty towing and payload limits 

Here you can see towing capacities for conventional, 5th-wheel, and gooseneck towing. We’ve also included the payload limit and the GCWR. These are the maximum ratings for the Super Duty truck, which means that not all models will reach these ratings. 

Maximum conventional towing 

24,200 pounds 

Maximum 5th-wheel towing 

32,500 pounds 

Maximum gooseneck towing 

37,000 pounds 

Maximum payload  

7,850 pounds 

Maximum GCWR 

45,300 pounds 

What factors influence the towing capacity of a Ford Super Duty truck? 

One of the main things that impact the towing rating of a Ford Super Duty truck is the engine that you choose. In general, the 6.7 L Power Stroke engine and the 7.3 L Gas V8 engine have higher capacities than the 6.2 L Gas V8 engine option. Other factors that may influence the towing rating include the rear axle, meaning whether a vehicle has single-rear-wheels or dual-rear-wheels, and the axle ratio. A higher axle ratio generally converts to a higher towing capacity. 

Which Ford Super Duty truck can tow the highest weight? 

That would be the Ford F-450 Super Duty truck with a 4×2 drivetrain, dual-rear-wheels, a 4.3 axle ratio, and a 6.7 L Power Stroke Turbo-Diesel V8 engine. This truck can achieve the ratings in the chart above. Most people won’t need nearly that much capacity, but if you need a truck for moving heavy equipment, the Ford F-450 Super Duty with the Diesel V8 engine should be your truck.
