2023-ford-f450-towing-features-thecartowing

5th-Wheel/Gooseneck Prep Package

Available on all models
Provides the necessary under-the-bed hardware to allow mounting of a 5thwheel/gooseneck hitch in the pickup bed to put more of the trailer weight over the tow vehicle

Features five pickup bed attachment points with plugs, frame under-bed cross-member, and integrated 7-pin connector

Smart Trailer Tow Connector

Provides trailer connection status, lighting, and trailer battery alerts/warnings

Alerts/warnings are displayed in the message center on the 4.2″ screen in the center instrument cluster

Standard Trailer Sway Control

Works in conjunction with AdvanceTrac® with RSC (Roll Stability Control™) to detect trailer sway and reduce it as necessary.

AdvanceTrac® control module incorporates additional software to monitor the vehicle’s performance while towing
The added software measures the yaw motion of the vehicle to determine if the trailer is swaying and then responds to eliminate the sway condition.

Standard Hill Start Assist

Helps prevent rolling back on a grade by momentarily maintaining brake pressure until the engine delivers enough torque to move the truck up the hill
Whether heading up an incline in drive or in reverse, you’re covered.

Trailer Reverse Guidance

Utilizes 3 cameras to provide multiple views along with steering guidance graphics to assist in backing and maneuvering a trailer
Trailer Reverse Guidance functions with all trailers, including gooseneck and 5thwheel applications
Included with the Ultimate Trailer Tow Camera System

Trailer Brake Controller (TBC)

Ensures smooth and effective trailer braking by powering the trailer’s brakes with an output proportional to the towing vehicle’s brake pressure.
The controller adapts output based on the status of the Anti-lock Brake System (ABS).

When the ABS module senses the towing vehicle’s brakes are approaching lockup, the controller’s trailer braking strategy changes to compensate for traction conditions, reducing the risk of trailer brake lockup.

Ultimate Trailer Tow Camera System with Pro Trailer Backup Assist

Available 360-degree camera with split-view display utilizes 5 cameras to provide an all-around view on an 8″ color screen on XL and XLT. 12″ color screen on Lariat, King Ranch®, Platinum, and Limited

How to calculate the load your vehicle can carry/tow?

1. Use the appropriate maximum GCWR chart (in the Trailer Towing section in this chapter) for your type of engine and rear axle ratio.

2. Weigh your vehicle without cargo. To obtain the correct weights, take your vehicle to a shipping company or an inspection station for trucks.

3. Subtract your loaded weight from the maximum GCWR in the chart. This is the maximum trailer weight your vehicle can tow. It must be below the maximum trailer weight shown in the chart.
