I didn’t look it up, but I remember seeing that a “long bed” crew cab f150 is the same length as a “short bed” crew cab f250. This makes sense since they would both have 6.5ft beds and identical cabs.
Funny, on my current truck I found it but wanted to verify payload before traveling to see it. The dealer that had it couldn’t figure it out/didn’t want to figure it out. So I called a sister dealer (same overall ownership) and asked them if they knew what I wanted. Said they did and they would get it. The information was what I wanted to hear (over 1800lbs payload), and the truck was then transferred to that second dealer and sold it to me - I was done with the first dealer if they couldn’t even read a sticker.
I’ll also vote F250. Even a trailer that an F150 tows well, the F250 is better. And you’re borderline as it is. If you think a larger trailer or 5th wheel might be in your future, consider the 350 (dependent on your states vehicle registration laws and taxes - the 250 really exists as a tax beater).2022 Transcend Xplor 240ML

2020 F250 Lariat 4x4 supercrew no sunroof 7.3. Payload is 3061. I had two previous F150s (5.0 and tuned 3.5). This thing is night and day. Not as quick as the tow tuned 3.5 but very powerful. 400 tq at the crank at 1500 rpm. We just went from Georgia to Colorado with a loaded 2800bh, generator, fuel, KLR 650 motorcycle, and 2 job boxes. The brakes and engine compression on this motor is 1000% better than the 3.5 and half ton brakes. You will not regret it. I finally realized what towing confidence was when going up and down some real mountains (Leadville, Ouray, and Silverton).

I have a 2670MK and tow with a Tundra, I am looking at 250's now, with this trailer you need more than a 150, not so much for power as extra weight brakes etc.

I've been towing with a ram 1500 with 1600 payload without problem but am maxed out without water and a generator and 450 of people and dogs and little in the bed and trailer coming in at 8100. The tongue is 900-1000# depending on how I load it. I only weighed in recently and was surprised by a few things like tongue. With water it will only go up from there so I'm looking for a 2500 or 3500 currently.

F150 Tow Vehicle
I pull a 2017 2670 MK with a 2009 F150 Lariat 5.4 Triton and max tow package with trailer adds. I use two anti-sway bars and WD hitch (older one) and it does pretty well. I usually stay between 6065 MPH and don't have too much trouble. You will always get the push/suck from passing vehicles. I have the sunroof and we max out our truck payload with the two of us, the dog and the grill in the bed. As long as you don't feel the need to drive 70 MPH, it will be fine. We chose the F150 more because it sits about 4 inches lower and my wife and I are not getting younger. It is easier to get in and out of and the running board is a big plus. My Lariat has the 20 inch wheels which lowers the payload 500 hundred pounds. I found my truck a little over a year ago but it was a great price and provided what we needed with a little wiggle room. I am careful how I load the trailer. Good luck. I would probably go with the F250 due to the payload and a bit heavier truck.JimandMeresa
