Well for sure you don't need a F250/F350 to pull a small 5000 TT a few time a year or for your wife to drive as a dailey driver.

As Skip says the 8200 HD package will give the best of all the worlds if you plan on a heavier TT or a 5th wheel trailer later on. Now add the EB V6 engine and you have the best of both worlds especially as a daily driver for the wife.
Mirrows :::.. you can add or replace them with ones of your choice.
