Payload Hit compared to EB

[vidwiz]

Good news is Costco will calculate your payload for you. Just enter your build and hit the print icon and it spits out all kinds of numbers. Bad news is I entered Eric's build which his sticker indicates is 1653, costco says it's 1791, so they were 138lbs optimistic. Not a perfect comparison tho as Eric has a 21 and Costco is a 2022.

Edit: Oh, and it shows you invoice price(s) as well.

Costco does what now?

My ‘22 Platinum with basically all the payload killing options is at 1318 lbs., but it doesn’t bother me. If I was using it for business and DOT was an issue it might be a different story. I’ll overload it and go on without a thought, which probably won’t be too often. I could do without the massive sunroof and power gate, but I found it on a lot and didn’t have a say in it.

My Platinum high Powerboost 4x4 with big generator is 1,424 lbs payload

Need some help as I'm trying to decide between the EB or PB. I tow a boat thats around 7-8K pounds. With some average stuff in the back, tongue weight, and peeps, this easily exceeds my Tundra's 1030 pound payload limit. I definitely want to stick with a half ton, so I'm getting a 150, but wondering if by going with the PB I lose a ton of payload.

Looking at the chart, it looks like I will lose a couple of hundred of pounds compared to the EB.

I'm getting a loaded Lariat regardless of engine (no sunroof though), I was wondering what kind of real world payload I could expect (door sticker) on the PB compared to the EB. Any PB limited peeps mind checking their doors for a payload number?

TIA!

My ordered 2022 XLT Power Boost's Cargo Capacity is 1645#. I was very careful what options I got.

I’m sitting at 1308# with my fully loaded up 22 king ranch 6.5 ft bed. The only thing I don’t have is the lay flat seats and FX package because I went for the CCD. I’ve already maxed it out with a 6x12 U-Haul trailer twice doing a move and it handled the trailer and cargo very nicely. Will be really putting her to the test in July with a 7000# RV. Going to use the sumo springs for that trip.

Might need to be in a separate thread, but what do you think of the CCD?

I would say in general that it’s a very subtle difference. I haven’t towed really heavy yet and I’m hoping that it will make a little difference there. I wouldn’t have chosen CCD over the FX package if my truck didn’t already have the rear locker because of the powerboost.

i know it isn’t July yet, but have you installed the sumo springs? Any update if they still allow the CCD to work properly?

Yes, I did install the sumo springs. They fit perfectly and don’t seem to cause any issues with the CCD. I have yet to put a really heavy load on since installing them but I’m sure they will work just as well as they did in my 2021.

With just 1306# CCC, and a 7000# GVWR how will you not be seriously over loaded?

With good planning it can be done. There are people on here that have pulled heavier loads with PBs with similar specs. Balancing the trailer correctly to manage payload weight and putting basically nothing in the truck except for people. It can be done but you have to have a plan and pay attention to the details.

Honestly, I feel better pulling a decent RV at max load than maxing everything out with a crappy Uhaul trailer. Electric breaks, weight distro hitch, anti sway, etc line the RV up to balance out much better which is good because the cross sectional area of the RV is much higher.

My '22 PB Lariat 502A with everything except I think the moonroof, bedline and scales is 1,468# payload. 8 more than my old '17 which was a pretty basic Lariat with not much added.

I am a bit dissappointed that it wasn't more (as I was hoping to tow a TT, but now re-thinking that plan), but the other option was to keep the '17 which was limited to 7k #s of towing anyways.

There are a LOT of RV's that a Powerboost can tow with ample towing prowess.
Most RV's that are beyond the Powerboost are beyond other 1/2 ton trucks too.
(The HDPP F150 being the exception, of course)
There are some very nice RV's that are being manufactured with an emphasis to keep weight down, but often the cost reflects the more expensive material use.

Maybe some day the engineers will have a motor driven cam assembly that can add more rear spring rate for towing and then flip a switch and go back to unladen great ride. Or go back to the days of air shocks that can be aired up for loads. Flip a tow/haul switch and sag is gone from tongue weight of beefy trailer. Sticking trucks butt in air from factory seems like an archaic way to make suspension design.
