F350 help

I need to find an F350 super duty for work (Dual wheels in the back, with a flat bed, 12foot bed is good enough)

I found one & would like to check the vin number to see the specs. So I have a few questions:

1- Does anyone know a website that allows you to check vin numbers?

2- How can I know if I can load about 2,100.00 Kilos on the bed?

3- Will the 5.8L v8 with an automatic 4 speed be able to handle the load?

Thank for the help!

I love it when I answer my own questions:

1- https://www.fleet.ford.com/maintenance/vin_tools/default.asp ford truck vin decoder


2- GVWR – Gross vehicle weight Rating is 10,000 to 14,000 pounds. The vehicle is about 6614lbs this leaves about 7386lbs to be loaded with material. Which means it’s enough for me.

3- I guess the automatic & 5.8 can handle the load because the vehicle is rated at that particular load.


Anyone with anything to add??
