Rather than look at just the F-350, look at the GVWR of your trailer, then go find the truck to match it. If you're saying "higher the better", it sounds like you're gonna be hauling a lot. You may want to even look into the F-450 or beyond. Go to www.trailerlife.com and check out the weight ratings for the various model years.
