One more note to the OP- fully loaded, that Wildcat will have a pin weight around 2260#. No, you probably won't load that heavy but you need to figure on the pin being close to 2000# by the time you load up.
Add a hitch, passengers and "stuff" in the truck and you will likely be pushing the payload of the stoutest 1/2 ton - the F150HD with an 8200# GVWR.

1/2 ton towable indeed! :E
Maybe OK empty!
I can just see a newbie with a 1/2 ton that has 1300-1500# of payload rating pulling these fivers saying "but the Manufacturer said it was OK"
IMHO the Manufacturers should be held responsible for misleading advertising!
Rant over!:R
