You may already be aware of the problem some owners had with the F150HD 3000+ lb advertized payloads and adding all 3000 lb in the bed of the F150HD overload the trucks 4800 RAWR.
The 4800 RAWR is good for up to maybe 2400-2500 lbs in the bed depending on the trucks actual scaled axle weights.
Probably one reason Ford dropped the old 8200 GVWR numbers back to 7850 GVWR.
One F150 owner came up with a 6800 GVWR and small 3800 RAWR with max tow package...so choose the bigger GVWR packages with the bigger 4550-4800 RAWR numbers.
Good luck
