Looking at the F150 shows the 3.7 V6 with a 5500-6700 lb tow ratings and of course the 3.5 V6 Ecoboost engine with a 11k + tow rating. No manual tranny shown.

The Dodge has a 3.6 pentastar V6 with tow ratings from 4500-7600 lbs and the new 3.0 V6 diesel up to 9000 lbs tow ratings. No manual tranny shown.

GMs 4.3 V6 shows a 5800-7600 lb tow rating and no manual tranny shown.

All three were in the 1/2 ton size trucks. The Toyota or Nissen may have a manual tranny.
