Does VIN Indicate HD Tow Package?

Like the title asks, does my VIN indicate whether or not my truck has the Heavy Duty Tow Package option? If so, how do I decipher it?
Thanks.

The VIN doesn’t include that level build configuration. Here’s a summary VIN decoder, and a detailed 2021 Ford VIN decoder pdf link is attached.

HTH,

You could use the VIN to pull up the window sticker.

There’s a way to look up the window sticker with vin. That should tell you all the options. Maybe try to search for vin / window sticker. I know I’ve seen it here before.
