The highest payload rating is on the regular cab two-wheel drive with the 5.0 engine, which can handle 3,325 pounds.

For those who plan to use their truck extensively, sticking to the XL or XLT side of the family may be the way to go. These trims offer a good balance of features and price without breaking the bank. If you want to go off-road but don't want to buy a Raptor, the Tremor is an excellent option. It's King Ranch and above for those who want a premium truck with luxurious features.
