Looks like you have an XL trim, possibly with the HD package based on the door jamb stating LT tyres.
If you're only towing what you spec'd, and i'm guessing you're looking for new tyres at this point? just go for some P metric tyres, feel free to use the same tyres, you'll get better MPG with the narrower tyres and going p metric instead of LT will be better on MPG, far less unsprung mass due to LT's normally being much heavier tyres, and the F150 does not require LT tyres.

Yeah, then AFAIK, you have the HD package, it'll be why it's spec'ing LT tyres from the factory - it'll be lower on MPG as a result - i see no reason to fit LT tyres if you're not maxing out the payload or towing, you'll gain MPG, ride comfort and acoustics changing over to a P metric tyre.
