I’m going to settle this. My company provided F150 with the 3.5L twin turbo is awesome. I had to tow a large maintenance trailer, empty, 500 miles.

Go normally aspirated gas when towing in regards to gas engines. Turbos are great but they are like a fire hose when loaded.
I think they get pretty good economy for something that'll tow like a V10 naturally aspirated engine.
