Towing Capacity
Can anyone tell me the towing capacity of this: 1FT8W3BT2HED98384
2017 F350 Diesel CC 8' bed lariat with 3.55 and 11500# package?
I'm going to be towing a 5th wheel with a max capacity of 13900.

I'm not sure what truck this is on the ford towing selector, the numbers I'm looking at seam kind of low for a 350 diesel, only about 12K pounds for 5th wheel, but I may be looking at the wrong thing.

You won't get close to the 7200 pound rear axle weight rating, not unless you have a bed full of sand bags while towing.

Can you show me where the towing numbers for this truck are online? The ones I saw in the selector say 12K pounds max 5th wheel, but I would think it would be higher than that.

12K would probably be for a 6.2 gas engine truck.

That shows 12K trailer WITH THE 10K GVWR package, not what the truck you are looking at has. You have to look at the notes that go along with those ratings on that chart.
I'm telling you, that 11.5K GVWR truck is more than enough to handle that 13,900 trailer you are looking at.
