My fifth wheel is close to 12,000 lbs & my truck pulls it very well. Power wise another 2000 lbs wouldn't be that bad on flat roads, but the truck would be badly overloaded. A 14,000 lb fifth wheel will have about 2800 lbs on the pin, plus hitch, plus passengers, plus gas, plus other stuff. A one ton would do it.
Personally though, I'd go with the diesel.
