I was looking at buying a 1999 F-350 5.4 crew cab 8 foot 5-speed and it was rated 7500 if it was a 3.73, was ample for the 7000 lb class stock trailer we have, but I passed on it.
Looks like a 5.4L 5-speed truck will tow up to 9700 lb if a 2wd reg cab with 4.10s. so your numbers are only limited by the GCWR limit.
I have a 7.3 6-speed and 3.73, bumper pull is 10,000 with that power train no matter what config, 5th wheel is between 12600 and 14000 depending on the truck config.
Sounds like to be towing a 12,000 gooseneck, you should really have the 6.8 or 7.3.
Don't compare a newer 2009 5.4..those have more power and were rated to tow more and could be had with a 12,000 towing capacity.
