How do I use the Ford Towing* Calculator to find the towing capacity of my vehicle?

The Ford online Towing Calculator provides a quick way to calculate the maximum loaded trailer weight and maximum tongue weight for your vehicle.

Notes: 

• Only 2020 model year and newer F-Series pickup trucks capable of towing can use the Ford Towing Calculator at this time. Check back at a later date to see if additional vehicles have been added. Use our general towing capacity article for all other vehicles.
• If you are looking to purchase a vehicle, you can use its window sticker to obtain the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN).

To use this tool:

1. Go to the Ford Towing Calculator page and either:
   • Choose Sign in to My Ford.
     1. Log in to your Ford account.
     2. Choose your vehicle.
   • Enter your VIN.

2. Select Continue.

   Note: If your vehicle is a 2020 or newer model-year F-Series pickup truck, and you receive a message stating the towing calculator is not available for your vehicle, refresh your browser. If this does not resolve the issue, contact the Ford Customer Relationship Centre using our Live Chat option or by calling 1-800-565-3673.

3. Scroll down to see the general ratings for your vehicle, and select Conventional, Gooseneck, or 5^th Wheel to view data based on different hitch types.
4. Select Configure.

   • Occupant(s) – All the occupants of the vehicle
   • Cargo – Items carried by the vehicle
   • Accessories – Additional vehicle add-ons and trailer connection hardware
6. Select Calculate and the Towing Calculator will provide the Max Tongue Load and Max Trailer Weight based on the information you entered.
   • If your vehicle is capable of towing what you require, you will see a message at the top of the page advising, “Weight is within your vehicle’s ratings.”
     
      
   • If your vehicle is incapable of towing what you require, you will see a message at the top of the page advising, “Weight exceeds your vehicle’s ratings. Reduce added weight.”
