FAQ
How much can a Ford Expedition tow?
Up to 9,600 lb when properly equipped (2018–present) — Heavy-Duty Trailer Tow Package. The 2025+ redesign (5th gen) tows up to 9,600 lb; the 2018–2024 4th gen was rated 9,300 lb.. That's the best-case maximum; most Expedition trucks/SUVs are rated lower depending on engine, axle, and tow package. Check your driver's door-jamb label for your exact rating.
Is 9,600 lb the rating for my Expedition?
Probably not — it's the highest figure for the best-equipped configuration. Your specific vehicle's towing capacity is on its door-jamb label and in the year-specific towing guide, and is the number you must obey.
What about tongue weight and passengers?
Tongue weight (about 10–15% of the loaded trailer) and everything in the cab — passengers, cargo, fuel — count against your payload and limits. Leave headroom rather than towing right at the maximum.
The Ford Expedition figure is a best-case maximum for a properly-equipped configuration, provided as a reference. Your vehicle's actual towing capacity is lower and is on its door-jamb label and year-specific towing guide — always verify there before towing.
