The diesel/gas question probably comes down to how much you expect to tow, and what you do with the truck the rest of the time. And personal preference. I like diesel but just traded mine in for a 1/2 ton gas as I didn't use it enough. I actually parked mine in the winter instead of abusing it with my short commute. So back to gas for me, based on what I do when I'm not towing.
You will add more than 1,000 lbs once you consider the propane tanks, batteries, water and hitch all become part of that total. Best to consider the gross weight rating of the trailer when thinking about towing. But an F250 diesel will be fine with that size of trailer.
So you tow 8000lbs with a 1/2 ton?
