That truck should serve you well. The 5.0 is a great engine.
By comparison, my 2014, last year of the steel body, which has the HD package, and Max Tow package is:
GVWR = 8200
Front GAWR = 4050
Rear GAWR = 4800
CCC = 2286
GCWR = 17100
Wheel Base = 163"
XLT Supercab, 4x4, w/ 3.5L Ecoboost

Out of curiosity, what is the GVWR and the rear2axle rating? I'm assuming you have the 6.5' bed? Is it an XL or XLT?
GVWR 6900
Front GAWR 3225
Rear GAWR 3800
Payload 2312
I am not saying that I purchased a Supertruck, but a Supercab. My only real point is that without opening the doors, I almost paid the same money for the same truck with a Eco 2.7 and 700 pounds less payload. Neither truck had any optional suspension or towing upgrades. Buyer beware. I do not mind giving up five percent fuel mileage for the difference.
