What is your real world measured weight, for your late model F-150 crew cab?...and what sort of trim/options are on it?
I'll be needing to start thinking about a new daily driver pickup in the coming months, so I'm starting some more 'serious' research to settle on what I "want"...then I'll see if I can find what I want at a reasonably decent deal....
I've been leaning towards a Ford for a few different reasons...yeah, yeah, a whole other discussion I know....
I'm also leaning towards going 4x4 this time, even though I really don't need 4x4. The primary reason is potentially towing it.
I know to tow behind my current MH I really should be looking at something a good bit smaller, but just thinking about potentials and if it might be even close to possible to tow.
I'm assuming those published weight numbers I see would probably be for a stripped down base model XL or whatever, with no options....but based on what I'm seeing I might be able to make it work. I'm trying to figure out a ballpark added weight for a say a typically outfitted Lariat trim package. I'm not even a little bit interested in anything like the Raptor...jacked up, big wheels and tires, etc... I know that would take the weights up even more...but I wouldn't want that sort of thing anyway. I'm just after a strait forward truck with "street tires" ... probably a Lariat.
Thanks
