X2 on truck payload. Ram and Chevy half tons seems to come up short there, The F-150 with the Ecoboost, max tow/max payload package might do it for you, but at a price. Alternatively, the F-150 with the 5.0 V8 (not your father's 5.0) and the 8200 gvw package and max tow will you get you close to the EB version's numbers at a lower price.

Ford's HD Payload package (8200# GVWR) really turns the truck into a different beast, something in between an F150 and F250. Wish I had one.
It comes with 7 lug wheels and HD rear axle (higher rGAWR), stiffer suspension (leafs and shocks) and LT tires instead of the P metrics. The suspension/tires alone would be worth it as the regular F150's is pretty wimpy.
It's just not available in all models and usually has to be ordered. Hard to find a used one too.
But I would never give up my Ecoboost. The low end torque is what you want for towing.
