Tipping point? Ford F-150's built-in scales measure live payload weight
Will this stop people from overloading the mule?

I wonder what it will do when the coyotes have one loaded down with 40 people?
AModelCat, Dave1837 and buzzarddriver Thank this. -
Why the hell do you need an integrated scale on a 1/2 ton???? On a 3/4 ton... Maybe. On a 1 ton... Sure. But a 1/2 ton????
If its heavier than an ATV you shouldnt be hauling it with a 1/2 ton... PERIOD!drvrtech77, PacoTaco, dwells40 and 1 other person Thank this. -
Hahaha, no
We all know that this will only lead to guys competing to see how much more than their buddys they can overmax it atbuzzarddriver Thanks this. -
HaHa! And they probably have it fixed to not allow the truck to start if overloaded.
Just another gizmo that will cost thousand's to fix at the dealer. -
You’ve seen those videos jumping Ram TRX pickups or running Jeep Gladiators through the mud and then something breaks and the people expect the warranty coverage to cover the costs of repairs....
That should tell you everything you need to know about the bozos that buy these vehicles and have more money than common sense!Last edited: Apr 30, 2021

It’s snowbird country down here so I see a good amount of F150’s towing travel trailers they shouldn’t be.

You can tow 10k with most half tons these days. These trucks aren't like the old square bodies. I put about 7k worth of trailer behind mine. Handled like its not even there. Power-wise it would be nice to have a little more torque under the hood. Integrated brake controllers work way better than the old standalone units.
bzinger Thanks this.
