You could "pull" it but not "carry" it. Enough power to drag it behind you but not enough suspension or payload to handle the tongue weight. Simply too much trailer for a 1/2 ton truck.
Disregard towing advice from RV dealers. They want to sell you a camper and could give a hoot if your vehicle can tow it safely.
I'd like to know the dealership you went to in Jacksonville - there are only 1 or 2 that sell Grand Design, unless this is a used unit.
