That's not correct, they just showed the crew cab short bed configuration at the Detroit auto show. I'm sure they are taking deposits now! 
Some general comments about engine choice, my 2012 F150 was a 5.0 and my current 2013 is an 3.5L Ecoboost. If you tow, do yourself a favor and get the Ecoboost. It is a torque monster and pulls my 7500-ish lb 23' boat/trailer like it's not even there. The 5.0 could maintain normal interstate speeds but definitely had to work at it, frequent downshifts from 6-3 get annoying after a while. The Ecoboost drives like a quiet diesel with worse MPG, I love it.
