towing maximum for F150 lariat
 
I am thinking of buying a 2007 F150 Larriat, but, the current one-
owner doesn't have the original brochure and doesn't know what the
towing max is for that vehicle. How can I find out? This vehicle
was $45,000 new, and is in very good shape with only 40k miles.

I need to know what the max tow weight is because I'll be looking for
a travel trailer to pull behind it, and, I need to know my limits.

As I am sort of looking for a pickup, you got my curiosity going.
Towing capacity seems to be 10,500 lbs.

10,500 pounds "when properly equipped". Whatever that means. /grin

Go to Ford's website, you can download an owner's manual.

Meaning depended on equipment. My Titan had a certain tow rating,
more with a towing package. I miss it already...

Which is far more useful than a "man, this is THE truck for you"
brochure. The brochure will give you a max towing weight, with a
little * that says "depending on option and other factors"
