Whether you're hauling a camper, utility trailer, or boat, towing capacity is a key factor when choosing your truck. Ford offers a wide range of rugged vehicles suited to every need--from the city-smart Ford Maverick to the heavy-duty F-450 Super Duty, and the innovative electric F-150 Lightning. Let's break down the 2025 models to help you decide.
Which Ford Should You Choose Based on Your Towing Needs?
2025 F-150: The Perfect Balance. With a maximum towing capacity of 13,500 lbs, the 2025 F-150 is a versatile truck, ideal for those switching between work and leisure. Its comfortable cabin and advanced technologies--such as Pro Trailer Backup Assist™ and the SYNC® 4 system--make it as smart as it is powerful.
Super Duty Series: For Heavy-Duty Tasks. F-250 Super Duty: Up to 23,000 lbs of towing with proper equipment. F-350 Super Duty: An impressive 39,683 lbs (gooseneck towing). F-450 Super Duty: Can tow up to 35,000 lbs--ideal for industrial loads.
2025 Ford Maverick: Compact Yet Capable. Don't let its size fool you: the 2025 Maverick can tow up to 4,000 lbs--impressive for a compact truck. The hybrid version is more fuel-efficient but limits towing to around 2,000 lbs.
2025 Ford Ranger: Made for Adventure. The 2025 Ranger offers a 7,500-lb towing capacity--perfect for a trailer or small RV. Its maneuverability makes it a favorite for outdoor enthusiasts.
2025 F-150 Lightning: Electric Power. With the right towing package and extended-range battery, the F-150 Lightning can tow up to 10,000 lbs. Without this package, its capacity drops to 7,700 lbs--which is still impressive for a fully electric truck.
