Yes, I can think of something. I bought a new 2013 F150 144 WB Ecoboost 4x4 3.73 axles, max tow, max payload, and pretty much every other option. It was a great truck and it had all the power I ever needed. I sold it at 18,000 miles with six months of warranty remaining.
You should get an accurate tongue weight for your 25. My 2013 FC25FB twin with solar, road ready with empty tanks weights 1,253 lbs on the Airstream scale in Jackson Center. That together with the cargo I carry meant the Ford was overload from receiver (1150 lbs max), to tires, to axle. It's pretty clear to me from reading posts on this forum that a lot of guys wouldn't worry about that but I traded for a GMC 2500 Duramax.
I love the GMC but I'm not happy about making the wrong choice which was primarily the result of believing Airstream's inaccurate specs for my trailer: 837 lbs tongue weight in their dreams. If you have a rear bedroom you may not have this problem.
