Don’t forget the WDH weight.

The WDH is going to take another 100lbs off your max Cargo capacity. I have same TV except 2020 and max cargo is 1740 lbs. my current trailer is 7200 gvwr and my hitch weight was just at 900lbs with scale weight of trailer at 6400lbs. Me and wife are 350 lbs plus 100 lbs for hitch makes 1350 plus about 100 lbs of cargo in truck makes 1450 lbs leaving safety of 290 cargo capacity. Going up to max on the trailer would add at least another 100 lbs point being about 8000 lbs would be about the max trailer I would get and limit the length to 32/33 ft.

This engine cannot tow this trailer. It’s a city engine which will have to be replaced within 1000 miles if you tow that much weight.
This truck cannot handle this weight period. Perhaps to move it around the yard.
Someone mentioned an F350. That would be much better and will reduce your white knuckle experience.

Get an F250 or F350 diesel with tow package (exhaust brake, fifth wheel hitch prep, hitch receiver, tow/haul transmission modes, trailer brake controller and trailer sway control). You will be a lot happier even though Ford advertises that the 2020 F-150 3.5-Liter EcoBoost V-6 with 375 hp and 470 lb-ft can "tow up to 13,000 lbs. and deliver a best-in-class payload rating of 3,270 lbs.

Or either of the 2500-3500 brands will work just as well!
