3/4 ton truck suggestions for 4x4 truck camping

I am looking for suggestions for purchase of new 3/4 ton truck for 4x4 truck camping. I will be doing a combination of around town driving both with and without the popup camper on and 1-4 week trip...

I'd go with a 3/4 ton instead of a 1 ton. The camper you're looking at isn't heavy enough to warrant the 1 ton, and you'll get more suspension flex with the 3/4, which is important off-road.

X2. You don't need a 1 ton to haul a pop-up camper as they're generally not as heavy and won't be a problem with a 3/4 ton and the price difference will be thousands less.
