Monkey, the OP is talking 5th wheels...not TTs...so there's no ball connection to worry about.
Redfish...I agree with others, a one ton is the way to go and will cover just about anything you want to tow. You may have to have the trailer's axle/springs reversed to get the necessary clearance but I highly doubt it.
When purchasing any truck other than the 1 ton, I would recommend getting the trailer first and matching the truck....but if you get the truck first, I would ONLY go with a 1 ton to make sure I could pull/carry almost anything.
Good luck
Ron
