Trade trucks with your dad for the day or try your F150. The way I look at it is that Ford put a 1050# hitch on your truck from the factory. If Ford didn't the F150 couldn't haul that weight, they'd have changed the numbers on that hitch.

You probably will be a bit over your max payload rating.

5.0GN tow

This is a 9k GN hooked up to my 2013, it is right at max GVWR and GAWR. It tows the load no problem at all, we usually are right at 8k, but had 3 horses aboard today. As you can see the slant load stalls keep almost all the horse weight on the tandems.

looks like a very well balanced load. I bet it tows like a dream.

5.0GN tow

Yep we tow the trailer all over Ohio, Ky,In,WV and PA every weekend 9 to 10 months a year. My kids show AQHA and big open horse shows, so it gets a work out.
