I also speak from experience and agree with those that have said, go with a 250/2500 series truck, you won't regret the decision. Even though you can tow that trailer with a 1500 that is equipped and set up correctly, it is still too much trailer for a 1500 IMO.
I have been through the experience personally and put many miles of near maxed out weight towing with a 1500. Most of the time it was fine, but when s**t starts to go sideways it can get nasty really fast.. The larger truck is soo much more capable in every aspect.. I actually relax while towing now.
