well initial though was a 5er but docent look like I can get what I want with this f250:(
So, my neighbor pulls a Fuzion 341 with a 2500 RAM. His hauler is heavier than ours, and he has 3 kids and puts 4 quads in his 11' garage. He's overloaded, but he's used to pulling heavy trailers and said it's not "that" bad. So some of it depends on your comfort level. My FIL is a former hotshot driver, he'll tow just about anything with his 1999 GMC 3500 and feel fine about it.
As for us, we started out as inexperienced towers driving in the mountains and in very windy places with a larger bumper pull and a truck that was too small, and had some really scary moments. We went from an F150 (not good), to an F250 (better, but still a bit stressful), to an F350 dually (weeee!), then got the 5er, and then just picked up the new truck this year and it's more than capable and we're happy. Did it cost us some money? You bet, but peace of mind is worth something too.
