If you haul boats to Lake Moultrie, pull trailers to job sites, or tow recreational equipment across Berkeley County, the Ford F-150's towing capability is one of the most important numbers you need to understand before you buy. The F-150 has earned the title of No. 1 full-size truck for new-vehicle quality according to JD Power, and it backs that reputation with serious capability that matches real-world needs here in Moncks Corner, SC. Hybrid Power Meets Heavy Hauling If you’re looking to save money on fuel costs without giving up capability, the 2026 F-150 powertrain lineup has you covered. The available 3.5L PowerBoost® Full Hybrid V6 pairs a twin-turbocharged engine with an electric motor to generate 430 hp and 578 lb-ft of torque. This hybrid configuration delivers an EPA-estimated efficiency of up to 25 city/26 highway MPG while maintaining a maximum towing capacity of up to 11,600 lbs and a payload limit of 1,740 pounds. It also features the available Pro Power Onboard system, providing up to 7.2 kW of exportable electrical power to turn the truck into a mobile generator. The rest of the F-150's available engine configurations cater to a wide spectrum of towing demands. The standard 2.7L EcoBoost® V6 yields 325 hp and 400 lb-ft of torque, capable of towing up to 8,400 lbs. The naturally aspirated 5.0L Ti-VCT V8 puts out 400 hp and 410 lb-ft of torque with a max towing capability of 12,800 lbs.. The non-hybrid 3.5L EcoBoost® V6 unlocks the truck's maximum towing potential of 13,500 lbs and a top payload capacity of 2,440 lbs backed by 400 hp and 500 lb-ft of torque. The Max Tow Package and What It Actually Does The Max Tow Package is designed to push the F-150's capability to its highest rated level, adding heavy-duty components that help the truck manage the added strain of large loads. This package makes a difference when you're pulling a loaded flatbed, a large camper, or a multi-axle trailer. Pairing the right cab, bed length, and powertrain configuration with this package is the key to unlocking peak towing performance. Raptor for Off-Road, Standard Lineup for the Worksite The 2026 F-150 lineup covers a wide spectrum of buyers. For those who need pure off-road ability, the F-150 Raptor is built around high-speed desert-style terrain. If you’re focused on towing ability, the standard XL, XLT, Lariat, and Platinum trims are where the towing-focused builds live. Each step up the trim ladder adds convenience features, upgraded cab materials, and technology that makes towing safer and easier. The available Ford Co-Pilot360® Technology suite, for example, includes driver-assistance features designed to help keep you in control, which is especially useful when managing a heavy trailer on two-lane roads. Technology That Helps You Tow Smarter F-150s aren't just about brute strength - they're built to make the towing experience easier. Available BlueCruise® hands-free driving technology is designed for use on controlled access highways, covering 97 percent of those highways across the U.S. and Canada. While BlueCruise® is most relevant for highway driving, the broader Ford Co-Pilot360® Technology package includes systems that support safer towing in everyday conditions. The available Ford Connectivity Package adds a Wi-Fi hotspot, connected navigation, and voice assistance - features that are useful when you're on the road with a trailer in tow and need to reroute or check conditions.
