F150 vs 250

Thought I'd chime in here since I'm running a 2013 F150 with the HD payload. My trailer sits between 7200 and 7500 loaded for trip when calculated from scaled weights. With myself, wife, two 100 lbs. dogs and loaded bed (generator etc.) I'm under every limit, payload, axles, tires etc. Only spot I have to keep a close eye on is hitch. I bump up right at 1100 lbs. so that's my only complaint (and no one makes a higher rated receiver for this model F150 with HD, they do for non-HD...but why?) Anyway, I've towed this set-up for well over 15K miles through mountains, flats, horrible rain storms (just yesterday coming down I59). This has been a great tow combination. It works well with this 31 ft. trailer and weight. Would I go any heavier or larger with a 150, probably not. The F150 when properly equipped is a wonderful tow vehicle. With my Equilizer hitch, I get no sway and only the occasional push/pull from a semi. I don't drive over 65 and never will towing a TT. I can't say for the current aluminum model, and I think the HD's are few and far between. The 2017 250 looks very nice from the early reviews. I've never been able to find a comparative new 250 diesel in the same price range as a similar equipped 150. May be just my local dealers or just the way they deal, who knows.
