2026 Ford F-350 Super Duty Towing Capacity
1,949 of 6,159 live listings carry the 53W 5TH WHEEL HITCH PREP PACKAGE, read from the window sticker or OEM code. Updated hourly.
The 2026 F-350 keeps a 28,000 lb conventional rating on the XL, XLT, Lariat, King Ranch and Platinum in our catalog, with the Tremor at 18,200 lb; the Limited row stays blank until its figures are confirmed against an OEM source. For fifth-wheel and gooseneck trailers, 53W, the 5th Wheel Hitch Prep Package, is rated 38,000 lb. Because the heaviest rating depends on an option code rather than a trim, the equipped listings above count only trucks whose window sticker or OEM codes show 53W.

One catalog configuration per trim. Each trim comes in several engine, axle, cab and bed combinations with different ratings; a truck's own window sticker has its exact ones. A dash means that figure isn’t shown until it’s confirmed against an OEM source.
