Ford for a tow vehicle

Hi all,
Looking for a tow vehicle to replace my GMC. I've only been looking at GM products up until now. My current truck has a GMC 5.3 litre and is rated towing capacity of 9500 lbs. What would a close equivalent engine/axle ratio be in a Ford F150. Looking to buy 2016 or newer and not a diesel. Thanks

    Not a F-150 but I would go to a F-250 with the 6.2 engine. And 6 speed transmission. My next truck will be a F-350 with the 7.3 engine, and 10 speed transmission. I see you don't have a trailer so go with a bigger truck.
