Storage is always at a premium. You’ll learn to use every space. I roll my clothing items to compact them and then can stack them in any cabinet.
Plan your meals. You don’t have the storage to haul a lot of extras, also adds weight. Every trip, we take less food.
Don’t be tempted to haul too much just in case items or stuff for possible guests. My wife initially loaded up my TT literally like a second home. I was overloaded on my then TV drive axle and the TT axle, per CAT scale. I.e., one chair per person, none for guests, similar on dishes, limit to a few pots and pans (2 pots is more than we need, haven’t used the stovetop in two years).
Other than the HDPP, you have the most capable F150s for towing. Without further data to be more specific, if you stay under 9000# GTWR, you’ll likely be fine. Weight is more important than length, if you have a decent weight distributing hitch with sway control.
