the term "half ton towabl" does NOT mean that ALL half ton trucks can tow it. It merely means that there are SOME that will tow the trailer without oveloading it.

We have a quite a few Global Pickups that can tow a 26-28ft Lightweight 5Ver very well here. Problem is peoples aversion to buying them, early importation of US 5vers and their multitudinous problems have left a sour taste. Very similar to the problems and impressions left with the GM Diesels in the 1980's.
