towing with 1/2 ton towable trailer.
I have a Cougar lite that weighs 7,000 lbs empty. I load it up to another 800 lbs, so I'm around 8,000 including myself. The hitch weight is around 1200 factory, but I'm sure that's up to 1800 by now....

having towed heavy with my Previous 2011 F150 EB Max tow and done the same with my new F250 i'm here to say that the difference in how it tows is pretty substantial, even more so when its windy, raining or trying to tame the load in the hills with a much lighter truck.
You won't find me in a 1/2 ton again for a long time, on any RV loger than 25ft or 5500lbs or heavier the 3/4 ton + just plain works better and is more enjoyable. My 3/4 ton diesel doubled as my DD and its quite enjoyable when not towing.
