How much weight can my truck pull?
I have a 2001 7.3L powerstroke manual tranny. How much weight can it pull before I start hauling hay with it. There isn't any mountain over passes, but will be hills. Thanks
without additional info I can't give you an exact figure.
(cab style, wb, bed length, axle ratio etc, etc.
What I can ( hopefully) do for you is give you a link to the trailer towing guide for that year ……that is assuming you mean "tow" (when you say 'pull') or did you mean "how much weight can you put in the bed ….that would be 'payload'
I'll try to get you both:

(review pages 154-156 in the above download, which is your owners manual)
{I'm not sure if you'll be able to get the following links, they are coming from a secure site. If not email me & I may be able to get them to you another way}

please let me know if you are able to "link' these.
If the info you need is not in one of these charts …..give me more exact info regarding your truck. {there's more charts that I can hook ya up with}
I hope this helps
