actually.. absurd price... I would hop all over that if I didn't already have the exact same truck minus 25k in miles..

Ford and Chevy both have 6.5 crew cab 1/2 tons but they are a little difficult to find. I was thisclose to trading for a Chevy 6.5 bed crew cab with the 6.2 but the wife and kids talked me out of it lol. I'm not sure what kinds of payload they would have though its probably the heaviest curb weight configuration 1/2 ton truck. The 6.0 in the Chevy HD is a very good engine, probably will go down as one of the best ever made. Almost all the newer UPS package cars are using them with a GVWR probably triple most pickups. Not wild on power but very reliable, just never mind the RPM's in the mountains its going to spiiiin!

I'm not sure what your exact needs are for a crew cab but if it works for you you might consider the F150 SuperCab. I have a Hawk mounted on a F150 Supercab 6.5 foot bed and it works great. Granted I had to order it since they are hard to find but that way I could order the extended fuel tank and payload package.
The old cab and a half SuperCab has a new design and I call it a cab and three quarter. The rear seat area is bigger than it used to be. My 6' 2" son has ridden for hundreds of miles back there and says he has plenty of room. With the flat floor (no transmission hump) and suicide doors I find it to be a great platform to work out of.
You might just take a look and see if it might work for you. It will give you more payload as well.
P.S. Although I don't tow, for the nay sayers, I have the 2.7 liter eco-boost and have no problems passing other RV's at 11,000 feet.

Love my F150 Super Crew 5.0, 6.5 bed.. but it is a very long truck..
Curious about how your gas mileage suffers with the camper on it for those of you who have the EcoBoost? I have heard they take a bit of a beating when carrying weight? I am a roofing contractor so when the camper is off, I can often be found hauling quite a bit.
We spent 3 weeks driving Baja and averaged 16.2 mpg with camper, over 4500 miles. Not bad in my opinion.. the 5.0 is also damn good in the mountains, never a problem with the get up and go...FYI.. my camper is very light.. 81-81 Fleet 7.5.. totally gutted with no amenites.. I guess that helps with mpg?
