- F-150 Lariat 4x4 3.5 PowerBoost
That’s a great achievement!Payload: 1729 - VERY happy about this number consdiering i didnt want an XLT.
2021 Lariet 5.5 Bed, SCREW - Max tow, tow mirrors, 3.5L Ecoboost, 20" Wheels, 2kw pro power, plastic bedliner, 360 camera, 502A Package
I was VERY VERY selective on the options, even declined options they would throw in for free (ie. No FX4, B&O Unleashed or the sunroof)
After a ton of research and debate I ended up with almost a similar build. My 20’ TT has 800-900lbs tongue weight so not a lot of room to work with but i was willing to trade the sunroof, Fx4, Tonneau, Spray in Liner and powered tailgate with step for a bit of buffer on the payload. Those features alone are ~250 lbs. I may add those later on but much easier to add aftermarket (w/exception of sunroof) than subtract later on.
I did see recently on a thread where several people went with the XLT w/max payload and swapped the cloth for aftermarket leather seats for about $1,000 at the dealership and rolled the cost into the purchase. Brilliant solution to get the payload but not sacrifice comfort / luxury entirely. Personally I wanted some of the safety features on the Lariat (better lights and such) but I could see the appeal.
