You would do well to Seriously Think about a MD Medium Duty, or HD Heavy duty. Class 7..
Why in the world Would I suggest this , for your First Rig?????
Let me tell you.
I stop into the Dealers on a occasional period, and NEW Dually Diesels, all big three Are running..$50.000.00 to $60.000.00
Now, you need to go to the MDT, HDT Forums,
You can get a Good Used Freightliner, Volvo , with 750,000 miles give or take...for some where around $20,000.00 to $30,000.00
about half the price of a New Big Three Dually.:W
The Forums will point you the way...:B
Unfortunately, no MDT (Medium Duty Truck) or HDT (Heavy Duty Truck) forums on RV Net.
You will find those -and lots of info- on Escapees Forums

The HP & TQ, and load carrying/towing capacity of an HDT is only one factor. (It was intended for 80K lb trailers).
Stopping is another.
Hard to beat a 3-stage Jake for descending a steep mountain grade -
without ever touching the service brakes.
