Thanks for all the input! I was hoping for a little ammunition to get a 1500 but I don't think I have it. I had a feeling this was the response I would get-looks like my hubby is going to get the truck he wants :) We would like to get a used vehicle but was having a hard time finding a used 2500 without a ton of miles or it was relatively new and not much savings off a new truck.
We can use our work trucks but would like to be able to use our own personal vehicle instead.
As you can see, the people hiding behind their computers here on RV.Net don't believe anything under a 1T dually is suitable for towing, which is PURE hogwash with today's ½T trucks. Many of us here have and use ½T to tow within manufacture specs and very safely. My ½T routinely tows 8K and on many occasions 10K, all within specs and very comfortably. So, to answer your question, YES it is doable, and SAFE if done correctly. Ford & GM both have ½T trucks that fit your needs.
