Define 32' Solaire. What model? Length is not likely a limit as a 32' RV can mean 5000-12000 pounds. Most half tons are payload or receiver limited when it comes to RVing.

In general, stick to about 6000 pounds dry and you should be happy. Use tow haul, lock trans mode, lock out 4th gear, expect 2nd gear and 4500rpm up hills and 8-10mpg.
