Do not listen to anyone that does not provide weights. You need to do the research and buy enough truck to tow as well as haul the trailer. Your pin weight once loaded will be about 20% of the trailer GVWR.
First make sure the truck has sufficient payload capacity to carry the pin weight, plus the hitch, plus any truck cargo plus passengers. Second, look at the tow rating.
DO NOT use the brochure dry weights, use the trailer GVWR.
You will get a slew of unknowing folks telling you they pull their 39 or 42 ft 5er with a 3/4 ton truck with air bags....ignore them. Air bags add nothing to the weight ratings on the truck. Buy enough truck to tow and haul within the ratings and not try to make it work with add on crutches.
Now, all the anti weight police folks can back off because I am not telling him to get a dually, but to do the math and get a truck rated for the job at hand.
