I towed 7200 lbs with an F150 that had the Max Tow option with 1857 lbs for CCC. I had 900-9500 for tongue weight. The F150 had the 145" WB.
The TT was 31' long. I never really felt that comfortable towing it until I got a Hensley Arrow WDH.
It always felt like the TT and truck were never one with each other. I traded the F150 in on a Ram 2500 CC LB diesel. Not comparing power because thats not the issue. Handling was way way better. The longer WB and heavier weight help to put the truck in control of the TT.
JMHO but if you want a relaxed in control feel then opt for a 3/4 ton gas truck.
