2002 Ford F-150 Regular Cab XL 2WD Specs and Performance | Engine, MPG, Transmission

2,000 pounds more or less.

 

 

rent a trailer and pull it.

 

Look at the door jamb sticker.
It tells you the front and rear Gross Vehicle weights.
Add them together.
Weigh the truck with full tank of gas and without any other weight of driver or passengers to find 'base weight'.
Subtract this base weight from the 'Gross' to find the max (distributed) weight you can legally carry.
It will also include you as the driver and any other weight.
I can tell you it won't come anywhere near 3300 pounds.
Matter of fact even if you use only the rear Gross, it won't be much over 1200 to 1500 pounds in the Bed the rear springs and tires are rated for. This is not distributed weight.
The kind of weight your talking about would have the frame down to the axle.
The tires are not rated for much more than about 2200 +/-depending on the tire, and would have to be pumped up to max pressure.
Front end would be looking at the sky plus slow travel speeds and more than 6 hours travel time.
Steering and braking poor.
Don't do it.
Good luck.

 

My 1999 is camperized and I'd say I have about 1,200 lbs back there, including the canopy...

 

With my 99 with the 4.slow (4.6L)I have hauled 5000 pounds worth of batterys 2 hours to the scrap yard no problems and 3-4000 pounds of prepared steel multiple times and pulled a 1500 pound trailer with a 8000 pound truck on it.....super sketchy pulling that much especially with it being way unbalanced....couldnt get over 35ish without it starting to sway back and forth :/

 

2,000 pounds will put the axle onto the bump stops, rent or borrow a trailer and tow it

Good way to TEAR THE CRAP out of a truck....... Remind me not to buy that aftermarket !!

 

On these kinds of threads, there is always someone who will reply with a non sense answer outside of common sense.
Just because it can be done does not make it correct or Ok or proves anything but abuse of the truck and puts others in danger on the road.
Like the time a reply came in about towing.
The reply was "I pull my 28 foot travel trailer with a Chev S10.
Talk about ignorance!
Good luck.
