The 7.3 was in consideration. I would love to have one I was just nervous about it being a 1st year new model. I'm sure they will be just fine ford does a great job with their trucks. I agree with the hesitation on the new diesels. I know they can be deleated but I want a truck that can do everything I want it to do the way I want it to do it straight from the factory. I don't like doing modifications post production

If not needing or wanting new, or just don't tow very much, a used Chevy Avalanche could be the ticket. My old 04 Z71 tows 8000 pounds and gets 17 mpg highway. It is very comfortable around town and toddler approved, lol. I did upgrade the shocks and brakes and added Timbren progressive bump stops.... But for 5k all in, it is everything I need. The 09 and up LTZ are very nice, and the Cadillac EXT is amazing and tows even more. There is also an Avalanche 2500 option with an 8.1L that can tow about anything you put behind it.

I have a 2017 Ram 2500, but will need to upgrade my wife's SUV at some point if we want to pull the trailer as well.
Also - I noticed that without a drop hitch I've maxed the OEM trailer jack out. My truck is factory height with self levelling airbags.
And - barely fitting in my 8' garage door.
