You will most likely be at or over the F-150s cargo limit with either TT.
As advertised, my 5000 lb dry weight TT has a tongue weight of 450 lbs empty. When loaded and on the scales, the true numbers are 5600 lbs for the TT and 600 lbs on the tongue. This of course varies with how much stuff we carry on each trip.

So, do not be surprised if you exceed the cargo capacity of your TV, many folks do.
