I have one of those unicorns. Got it in 2017, when my dealer here in VA, found 4 up in PA. I was able to get one of them.
It's an XLT Supercab with 8' bed, 4x4. It has a 2246# pay load capacity, and 4800# rear axle and the Ecoboost engine.
All that said, should I be forced to replace my current truck, I'd almost for sure get a F250 XLT Crewcab with 6.2 gasser. Roughly comparably equipped F150 w/ HDPP and F250 6.2L truck are within about 1,000 dollars.

For the uninformed a Ford HDPP is also known as a "unicorn", very few and far between, usually custom ordered. From 2010 to 2014 you could tell them by the 7 lug wheels. Bottom line is pay load on door sticker minus passengers and gear in truck plus any equipment not installed by manufacturer, ie running boards, canopy. That number is what you have left for hitch weight, (the actual hitch weight not the random dry weight number from the trailer mfgr brochure).
