Hi Marco,
I have a 2010 F-150 crew cab short bed. The motor is not the V-6 Eco Boost but otherwise the truck is very similar if not identical to yours.
I tow my 3023 with a draw bar with almost no drop at all. Just the thickness of the flat part with the hole in it for the ball. So the ball ends up actually above the level of the part that goes in the receiver. I had air bags installed as soon as I got the truck and I just level things up by adding air to the bags, and off I go.
I do not use a weight distributing hitch at all. So far I have towed over 20,000 miles with no problems.
Tom
