Tow Vehicle Reality Check Please
I'm not sure what happened, but my wife suddenly opened up to the idea of a pickup and a larger trailer and currently has her heart set on the Cruise Lite 261BHXL. I know its no show stopped, but see...

So after some work travel I have some appointments to look at and test drive some trucks right away here, but am left with one question:
Should I concern myself with the axle ration or the capacities on the sticker?
I'm looking at tow capacity of 8000+ and a payload of 1600+ on the sticker which seems inline with many F-150s and Silverados. Should I only concern myself that my capacities are met? Or should I get picky on the axle ratio as well?
Keep in mine this will primarily be an in city daily driver except for the summer, where towing a 6000-6500 lb trailer through the mountains is likely, but going slow is fine.
Thanks again!
