towing with 1/2 ton towable trailer.
I have a Cougar lite that weighs 7,000 lbs empty. I load it up to another 800 lbs, so I'm around 8,000 including myself. The hitch weight is around 1200 factory, but I'm sure that's up to 1800 by now....

Nail on the head right there. By the time you option out a half ton with all the heavy towing and payload options, you may as well just buy a 3/4 ton cause they don't cost any more at that point and you get a lot more truck for your money.
True, but the ride of the 1/2 ton F-150 is so much better when not towing than the 3/4 ton F-250 Superduty! If you only tow 1/10 of the time, that is a lot of uncomfortable travel.
