Default Timbren Severe or standard

Is everyone purchasing the severe or standard version? I have a 2016 F150 screw and tow 7200 pounds with about 1100 or so on the toungue.

Standard part is FR1504e

It have the standard Timbrens. From what I read about the severe versions they are not that good unless it's a all time heavy load like a slide in camper or a salt spreader. The regulars Timbrens (1540 I believe) are plenty for a 1000 lbs tounge weight, ARE cap on the bed and with 500 in cargo in the truck. At least for me at least. As for the squatting. Only about 2 inches max with a 3/4 inch gap when unhitched.
