We bought our 25' fifth wheel from a 1/2 ton truck owner who realized it was too much trailer for his truck after only a couple of trips. He had taken only a couple of trips with it, and according to him he didn't want to continue white-knuckling it.
He was selling for half the new purchase price so we got a great deal on a fifth wheel perfectly suited to our 3/4 ton.
I also remember my hubby thinking his 1/2 ton 4x4 was a skookum machine that could haul anything, and we started with a 17.5' fifth wheel. After a couple of years we upgraded to an 3/4 ton because he knew the 1/2 ton was working too hard. Then in a another couple of years, we upgraded to the 25' fifth wheel noted above. We continue to enjoy the 3/4 ton and 25 footer. Perfect match.
