Should I Buy The Dealer's Hitch
I'm buying a bumper pull trailer and the dealer is offering to install a weight distribution hitch for $1,000. They said it is an Equal-i-zer, I don't remember which model. It's my first trailer so ...

If you're willing to pay the $1000's extra for an F250 over an F150, then why are you quibbling over the $300 of shop time to have the hitch installed? That's 2 hours of shop time these days, which is about right.
Then again, you 100% will need to adjust it yourself once you get home and get the trailer loaded. You're only paying for them to assemble the hitch and physically put it on the truck/trailer.
Guess I'm not really helping.
For a 9000GVW trailer, go with the F250. Even with modern trucks I still maintain that 7500 loaded is the COMFORT limit for an F150.
