    Escape 5.0 and Ford F150 Lariat Payload?

    In response to an earlier post, a target of 1800 lbs payload was recommended for the Escape 5.0. I started working with Granger Ford, and they shared that the payload for a 2024 F150 Lariat would most likely be in the range of 1150-1500 lbs. We "built" our Lariat with a minimum number of...
