Pulling it is one thing, stopping it is another and controlling it is yet another. A fully loaded Monty on a F250 will potentially be the tail wagging the dog. Straight line and gentle curves and easy slopes will probably result in no adverse problems. It is the down hill on the curves in bad weather and a rear tire failure and Mr Murphy calling in at the worst possible time that you could more likely regret not having enough truck for the job. Don't forget you'll also be sharing the road with other drivers and should one of them have a problem that tests your driving skills or the capabilities of your truck trailer combo, you'll be more likely to share the tale around the campfire instead of a hospital bed with a more capable truck.

Find the trailer you want, then get the truck that is right for job first and right for your budget second. With some searching you can satisfy both requirements.
