1/2 Ton Limit
Current set-up 2018 F150 Screw 4x4 3.5EB (1907 lb payload). Husky Centerline TS Hitch Jayco 22FB (6000 GCWR). No real stability issues. I usually have 1500+ lb left for tongue weight (I'm solo)...

^ Or to put Marty's experience into laymans terms, you can tow quite heavy with a smaller truck "if" its the right combination of weight, tongue weight, trailer axle placement, tow rig wheelbase, trailer length, etc.
And you can have issues with a bigger truck if the above considerations are "wrong."
As usual, no one size fits all answer. Hence why those who aren't as knowledgeable or don't care to get into the details often opt to "over truck" the combo, which generally never is a bad thing. Regardless of whether it's necessary or not.
