A few more items to consider:
Does the F150 have a brake controller? And HD trailer package?
Is the 12V charge line hooked up? Ford used to give you a plastic bag with a relay, fuse, and instruction sheet.
If the new trailer needs a battery and if you're going with a single 12V one, consider a Group 29 or 31 over the standard Group 24 size.
Not sure on the trailer package being HD, its the standard equipped hitch, but it does have the integrated brake controller. Everything is ready to go on the truck, already towing a 7000# horse trailer with it. On the battery I am thinking AGM like Optima or similar. I used to have an F350 Diesel Dually and had a pair of them in the truck for 10 years. Thought I had killed them by leaving them connected and they got completely run down twice, and was able to fully recover them both times. I have a flooded deep cycle that is only a year old that got killed by the solar panel so going to switch that one out with AGM in my RC trailer. What I like about them is they are lighter with more duration.
I dont see an option for multi quote, so instead of double posting, in reply to the post above mine, Thanks, I will have her check it out. The one trailer I am considering includes a 3 year membership when you buy an RV from them.
