The one pickuptrucks.com tested was a 2015 xlt crew cab 4x4. They calculated the payload to be 2880#. That was a 6.5' box. A longbox would be less as the truck is at the class max of 10k# GVWR.
All other things being equal, a longbed will have a lower tow rating than a shortbed truck.

The 10k GVWR on the F 350 actually reduces the legal payload. :h to avoid certain license/taxes in some states I suppose. Without it the truck you describe should have 3800 lb cargo, and 12500 tow rating these are of course just approximate guesses depending on configuration, options, trim level etc.
According to that chart, I was thinking, for a 5th wheel, the TC would be 15,600?
