Can we talk HD Tow one more time?

FX4 get a different/ softer spring rate?

Not necessarily. The FX4 gets different shocks. The HD tow vs non HD tow get different spring rates.

Just found a 2020 Platinum Max 4x4 w/1648 lbs of payload. It's from Canada.

I have 1796 lbs of payload on my Max XLT.
The only one I've seen post a higher payload was one with 1798 lbs, also and XLT.
So if you found a Limited with 1725 lbs, I would guess that is about as high as you will ever see.

Inched you out, I have 1874 payload. 2021 Expy Max XLT.

Nice.
I bought mine in 2019 and literary called every dealer who had a Max with HD towpackage.
Most of them couldn't figure out how to find the payload, I had to tell them where to look.
I could need another 100lbs; however, I found to my surprise that it was the aft axle weight restriction which
was the most restrictive limit, last year....

I'm guessing you have the 2+2+3 seating?
Mine is 2+3+3, bench in 2nd and 3rd row, with electric folding seats.

I know what you mean on payload. Had the same problem. Sales folks are not even educated on payload. Coming from an F150 STX FX4 4x4 6.5 SuperCrew, I was surprised on the payload of my Expy. It actually had 50lbs more which I am still shaking my head.
My Expy is actually 2+3+3 as well.

Did we feed someone bad information in here when they looked at their sticker? Far as I can tell, this unit is near 10k dry and 1300 tongue weight.

I don't think anyone here would've recommended pulling something that heavy. Seems like the RV dealer didn't provide advise the customer appropriately.
