Another truck and camper match question...
Let's start with...I am a professional worrier, so reading about others' experiences doesn't really help to reassure me with my own concerns. And,unfortunately, all the literature on matching trucks ...

Yup, don't forget that you will be carrying more than just the 1825lbs of camper, and it all counts.
Most 25-series (i.e. 3/4 ton) pickups these days barely have 1825lbs of available payload capacity let alone extra for everything you will eat, wear, and do while camping.
As you're a professional worrier, I would recommend that you stay away from the "numbers games" that some people play to carry heavier campers on lesser trucks. Numbers games such as ignoring GVWR and using only individual axle ratings to determine how much weight they can carry.
