Yes, you have enough load capacity in your vehicle to transport four friends and your golf bags. In metric units, the calculation would be: 635 kg -- (5 x 99 kg) -- (5 x 13. 5 kg) = 635 -- 495 -- 67. 5 = 72. 5 kg. You and one of your friends decide to pick up cement from the local home improvement store to finish that patio you have been planning for the past 2 years. Measuring the inside of the vehicle with the rear seat folded down, you have room for 12-100 lb. Do you have enough load capacity to transport the cement to your home?(99 kg), the calculation would be: 1, 400 ­ (2 x 220) ­ (12 x 100) = 1, 400 ­ 440 ­ 1, 200 = ­ 240 lb. In metric units, the calculation would be: 635 kg -- (2 x 99 kg) -- (12 x 45 kg) = 635 -- 198 -- 540 = --103 kg. (45 kg) cement bags, then the load calculation would be: 1, 400 ­ (2 x 220) ­ (9 x 100) = 1, 400 ­ 440 ­ 900 = 60 lb. Now you have the load capacity to transport the cement and your friend home. In metric units, the calculation would be: 635 kg -- (2 x 99 kg) -- (9 x 45 kg) = 635 -- 198 -- 405 = 32 kg. The above calculations also assume that the loads are positioned in your vehicle in a manner that does not overload the Front or the Rear Gross Axle Weight Rating specified for your vehicle on the Tire Label or Safety Compliance Certification Label found on the edge of the driver's door. Special loading instructions for owners of pickup trucks and utility-type vehicles For important information regarding safe operation of this type of vehicle, see the Preparing to drive your vehicle section in the Driving chapter of this owner guide. 159 2007 F-250/350/450/550 (f23) Owners Guide (post-2002-fmt) USA (fus) Tires, Wheels and Loading Loaded vehicles may handle differently than unloaded vehicles. Extra precautions, such as slower speeds and increased stopping distance, should be taken when driving a heavily loaded vehicle. Depending upon the type and placement of the load, hauling cargo and people may raise the center of gravity of the vehicle. TRAILER TOWING Note: The trailer towing charts in this section apply to vehicles equipped with gasoline engines; for vehicles equipped with diesel engines, refer to your 6. 0 Liter Power Stroke Direct Injection Turbo Diesel Owner's Guide Supplement . Your vehicle may tow a Conventional/Class IV trailer or fifth wheel trailer provided the maximum trailer weight is less than or equal to the maximum trailer weight listed for your engine and rear axle ratio on the following charts. To calculate your maximum trailer weight: For pickup trucks: Take curb weight, hitch hardware and the driver's weight, then subtract them from the GCWR listed for your vehicle series, engine, transmission and drive axle ratio (refer to the chart/table in the following text). This calculation will give you the maximum trailer weight possible for your vehicle. For chassis cabs and pickup trucks with aftermarket equipment: Weigh your vehicle at a certified scale and subtract this actual curb weight, hitch hardware, and the driver's weight from the GCWR listed for your vehicle series, engine, transmission and drive axle ratio (refer to the chart/table in the following text). This calculation will give you the maximum trailer weight possible for your vehicle. [. . . ] Verify the fluid level after operating vehicle to ensure correct fluid level. Some applications may vary based on cooler size and if equipped with an in-tank cooler. The amount of transmission fluid and fluid level should be set by the indication on the dipstick's normal operating range. Engine oil need only meet the requirements of Ford specification WSS-M2C930-A and the API Certification mark. 2007 F-250/350/450/550 (f23) Owners Guide (post-2002-fmt) USA (fus) Maintenance and Specifications 297 Maintenance and Specifications ENGINE DATA Engine Cubic inches Required fuel Firing order Spark plug gap Ignition system Compression ratio 5. 4L V8 engine 330 87 octane 1-3-7-2-6-5-4-8 1. 02­1. 28mm (0. 040­0. 050 inch)* Coil on plug 9. 8:1 6. 8L V10 engine 415 87 octane 1-6-5-10-2-7-3-8-4-9 1. 02­1. 28mm (0. 040­0. 050 inch)* Coil on plug 9. 2:1 *The 5. 4L 3V and 6. 8L 3V spark plug gap CANNOT be adjusted.
