Opinions wanted on Towing

The numbers are in there. It appears the OP has (7100-6350) 750 pounds of payload left. A 7,000 pound trailer will need more than that.

you meet all the weight requirements for your truck... only don't forget to add any accessories that you added to truck after purchase, like spray on bedliner and tonneau cover. I was surprised how much weight those two things added. That being said, I have 2010 Super Cab F150 with 5.4L and and TT with 5202 dry weight from factory and have had no problems with my truck handling the load.

Best is to take it over the scales and weigh each axle. No need for 80% rule, you can go max GCVW no problem with that truck. Fifteen years in trucking never heard of anyone say lets just load it 80%.

Since you are working with real numbers (a good thing!) - what is the gvwr of your truck? Is this 1,800 a pamphlet weight? Your real payload is as important as the rest of these numbers.

What's GVW and tongue weight?

80% range is useful for those not willing or able to do the REAL numbers but it appears you don't have that problem. Using 80% of capacity just allows you to do estimates instead of real numbers. You should be good to go but do watch your tongue weight (fully loaded, not the brochure numbers which are meaningless). With many half ton trucks the tongue weight is the limiting factor as the available payload is often reached long before the maximum trailer weight is achieved. Your door panel should give you the total payload your truck has (based on a completely empty truck). YOu have already factored in passengers, driver, cargo so all you need is the actual tongue weight. On my Rockwood this is 15% of the trailers GVWR or 1,200 lb. With a standard duty truck this MAY put you close to your limit so watch that number. Other than that you should have no problems and that ALSO may not be a problem for you.
