CAPABILITY
Best in Towing:
The New '09 F-150 gives you best-in-class trailer-towing capability* - 11,300
lbs. - across all cabs with the added confidence and stability of standard
Trailer Sway Control (TSC)** and an available factory-integrated Trailer Brake
Controller (TBC)**. Furthermore, the selectable Tow/Haul Mode on the six-speed
automatic transmission compensates for altitude, grade and load to aid
performance, especially when driving up steep grades or down extreme slopes. You
can choose the Trailer Towing Package or the new optional Max Trailer Tow
Package - a special group of heavy-duty towing upgrades.
*Class is full-size pickups under 8,500 lbs. GVWR. When properly equipped.
**Remember, even advanced technology cannot overcome the laws of physics. It's
always possible to lose control of a vehicle due to inappropriate driver input
for the conditions.
Trailer Sway Control
Standard on the New '09 F-150, Trailer Sway Control (TSC)* builds on the
AdvanceTrac® system with segment-first** Roll Stability Control™ (RSC®)* to help
maintain trailer control through selective wheel braking and reduced engine
power. The result: noticeable stability and control, which provides greater
driver confidence when towing the largest loads. *Remember, even advanced
technology cannot overcome the laws of physics. It's always possible to lose
control of a vehicle due to inappropriate driver input for the conditions.

Integrated Trailer Brake Controller
The New '09 F-150 now offers an available fully integrated Trailer Brake
Controller (TBC).* TBC synchronizes vehicle and trailer brakes for seamless
braking (even with the heaviest loads) to provide added driving control and
confidence. Factory-installed TBC with standard Trailer Sway Control (TSC)* is a
combination that's class-exclusive** to the New '09 F-150.

Best in Payload
The New '09 F-150 continues to deliver best-in-class* payload capability - 3,030
lbs. - while adding enhanced usability with two class-exclusive* features:
available Tailgate Step and available Box Side Steps. Each of these features
provides great functionality for the user. Greater capability plus enhanced
usability: that's the New '09 F-150
*Class is full-size pickups under 8,500 lbs. GVWR. When properly equipped.
Box Side Steps
Available Box Side Steps are another industry first and class-exclusive* feature
from Ford Trucks. Located on both sides of the New '09 F-150, just in front of
the rear wheels, these convenient steps feature hands-free operation and a
500-lb. load capacity. To use the step, simply tap a button with your foot to
extend the step, then use your foot again (away from the button) to push it back
into its stowed position. (6.5-ft. or 8-ft. pickup box only.)

Tailgate Step
The New '09 F-150 features an available class-exclusive* integrated Tailgate
Step with a 350-lb. load capacity. This ultraconvenient step stows inside the
tailgate, can be easily accessed when needed and includes a handy flip-up grab
bar. It's ideal for those who regularly climb in and out of their truck's cargo
bed.

Stowable Bed Extender
The available, stowable Bed Extender* provides additional cargo space when in
the outward position while the tailgate is down. It can also be flipped inward
to create a contained area at the back of the box when the tailgate is up. Best
of all, it conveniently stows neatly into the sides of the cargo box when not in
use, so it's with you when you need it and out of the way when you don't. This
practical innovation is also strong, durable and corrosion-resistant.
*Properly secure all cargo.
Cargo Management System
The Cargo Management System is available on Styleside box trucks with a 6.5-ft.
box. It handles as much as 600 lbs. per tie-down cleat (two cleats per rail
maximum) on its dual-rail system. For greater flexibility, step up to the
factory-installed Cargo Management Accessories Package, which includes a bed
divider, front header bar and two bed bars. Two storage bins are also available
as a dealer-installed accessory.
