F150 Ecoboosts are really popular right now. BUT, once you start looking at prices, you can probably buy a really nicely equipped F250 for the same dollars. For less dollars you can likely buy a nicely equipped 2500 GM,Chevolet, or Ram. The trade off is usually a more robust towing platform with much better resale value.
You need to up your weight cop sales pitch..... Just cause she said she doesn't want a 3/4 ton, I'm sure she really does subconsciously??
To the OP, the 6 speed Ecoboost you posted will tow a 5-7klb trailer all day in the mountains, and do it well. Payload is not a real issue as long as you're realistic about what you are hauling in the bed. I.e. Load of firewood vs some bikes and a cooler.
