Having a 2017 model of same trailer can you pull it sure. Will it be pleasurable? Depends. Where do you live and what are you going to do with it. When I bought mine I had a 2013 F150 with 5.0 and tow package. Local short tow it did great. Took a trip from Boise to Evanston Wyoming and was not pleasurable. 40 MPH crosswords made for many white knuckle experiences when encountering trucks. Couldn't pull 6 gear most of the time. 3rd gear screaming up some of the mountain passes at 55 MPH. Watched trans temp rise to 240 going up a logging road. Came home and traded F350 diesel. Just pulled from Boise to Las Vegas part of the trip in a blizzard. Was a more enjoyable experience. Stayed in 6 gear whole way. When roads were clear truck climbed the mountain passes at the speed cruise was set at, didn`t have to listen to the motor scream . Never had a single white knuckle experience.
