Fake news? I watched them tow the Ford another three times and not once did Kent say "out of control". In fact, the only time he even said control was at 6:36 of the video when he stated " As much as we like light weight for a lot of reasons, fuel mileage and all that, it doesn't help your control" He never said "out of control".
Porpoising has more to do with the suspension than the weight of the vehicle.
Suspension Enhancement To Reduce Porpoising When Towing 30 Ft Travel Trailer w/ 2015 GMC 1500
What Stops Porpoising on Tow Vehicle that is Using Weight Distribution with Trailer
Notice both of those trucks were GM 1500's with the 6.2L that are much heavier than the Ford in the video. Adding suspension upgrades or selecting a vehicle with a stronger suspension (F150 HD or higher) would eliminate or substantially reduce porpoising.
