Look at some of the new 1-ton SRW trucks, they have pretty impressive payloads, over 4000# in some cases.
You do need to do the math (PIN WEIGHT) on any fiver you looks at as you will be more limited than with a dually, but there are lots of good sized fivers out there that a SRW 1-ton can cope with. Yes, even that 14K Big-Horn if the pin weight is a typical 20%.
Our new Bighorn 3160 is exactly the same weight. The pin weight is 17% and well within our F350, short bed, crew cab SRW 1 ton's rear axle and payload limits.
