Based on the heavier weight of your F250 it should be less susceptible to the affect of semis passing you and crosswinds when towing. I went through a similar decision making process recently when we traded a 21’ Jayco for a 24’ Cougar trailer. Our 2014 Tundra was within 20 lbs of its rated payload capacity with the trailer empty. We purchased the trailer 300 miles from our home due to the model we wanted not being available locally.

The dry hutch weight was 640 lbs and other than the WDH (equalizer with sway control), propane, two batteries and a duffel bag for clothes the Tundra struggled.

I’ve since replaced with a 3/4 ton diesel for a tow vehicle.

Using your F250 will also remove having to worry about payload or other things when planning a trip.

Of course everyone has an opinion about their tow vehicle and experiences.
