I'm confused about the numbers you posted. I'm interested in the GCWR and GVWR, especially the former. 3,200 pounds on the 5th wheel isn't much. This year's pickup trucks are rated to pull your trailer. I also don't think "payload" means what you think it means. Payload = GVWR - GVW.
GVWR = GVW
GCWR = GCW
Payload = GVW - Curbweight
Unfortunately I did not find curb-weight of international on official website. But on some site I saw that's 7K lbs.
So International GVW 22.9 minus curb-weight 7K = payload 15.9.
As for as 3200 lbs hitch, but I have water, generator and AUX diesel. It adds up fast.
f-350 can tow 20K toy-hauler. Payload is restricted to less then 6K
I think that your curb weight is going to be closer to 11K lbs. My F150 is 5600lbs.
To me the decision seems to be coming down to what you need the most, the towing and hauling capacity of the Ford vs the 4wd of the International. If you want both talk to these guys or someone similar about a 4wd F650:
F650 pickups
They can probably do air suspension and air seats too.
