With only 6500 lbs for GCWR it's possible your payload is barely above 1000 lbs. Not much left for passengers, camping stuff and tongue weight.
The F150s are fairly light. On Ford's website the only models listed that are more than 5000 lbs are diesels and the Raptor. Of course, one needs to look at the yellow sticker and do the math prior to committing. I would think that the new truck would likely have more payload than his current one, what with the lighter aluminum body.
I think that goducks10 meant GVWR, not GCWR.
A lot of good info here:
Ford 2020 towing guideFor as light of trailer as the op is talking about the 2.7 Ecoboost would be fine. Especially if combined with the 3.73 gears and max payload payload package.
