Have you driven a F-150 configured the way you want?
As has been stated, you will be right around its max limits, but yes it can do what you ask, especially as you put it originally about keeping the speed down. But before you lock into that idea, try an F-250. You may well find that the difference in "feel" isnt that great.
All the newer trucks are being made higher profile now, and even the half tons feel bigger than they did in the past.
That 3.5EB and 10 speed is as quick as a greyhound..5.5 seconds to 60.
On reason why I enjoy driving cars versus a big truck, is the quickness and agility, and that quick F150 is the least compromise to tow a heavy trailer that is out there.
Those big slow gas HDs are like fat bulldogs when towing and in the cut-throat traffic...quickness matters.
