best tow vehicle

I am looking a purchasing a new tow vehicle. Which will be a 1 ton. My trailer is a 36' Carriage Cameo GVWR is 15990# I would like to get some insight from those of you that have experience with the different manf. such as Chevy, Ford, and Dodge as to why one is better than the other. I know that this is opening a can of worms, but intended to. I have looked at the horsepower and torque of each unit, but that does not tell you the whole story. Which one is the most reliable and holds up the best. I have heard alot about the Dodges being not as reliable and needing more repairs, but do not know that first hand. That is why I would like some real good feedback from those of you that have the knowledge. Also which would be the better truck a SRW or DRW and why. Not sure how much I will be pulling the trailer.

Thanks
