As far as the trucks tow weighting the manufacturer assumes you are pulling a flatbed when making those numbers. A travel trailer is different, primarily with more tongue weight.
Good luck,

Primarily it is the frontal area that makes towing a TT different from a flat bed. Tongue weights could easily be the same but the TT will tow much harder.
