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.
Or hundreds less if you're talking apples to apples.

On a Ford the price difference is LESS then $1K between similarly equipped F250 and F350s.
Going with an F350 also precludes any need for air-bags or other suspension crutches commonly applied to F250s.
WELL equipped pop-up TCs such as Northstar and Outfitter are NOT as light as people would think.
