Choosing our first travel trailer! Big family
I got so much help here narrowing down our truck choice/needs so I am going to follow up with a post for recommendations for choosing a travel trailer. We will have a pickup with towing capabilities ...

Hopefully you took the advice that you buy or select the trailer FIRST then match a tow vehicle to the trailer.
"We will have a pickup with towing capabilities of 13,000lbs+"
What is the truck's payload rating? How much weight will you carry in the truck? Kids, you, spouse, stuff, animals etc.
We have to use the vehicle as a daily driver when we’re not towing so we needed to figure this part out first, and then make sure to get the right camper that will suit us and the vehicle if that makes sense. That’s why we’re making sure the vehicle will be much more capable than we necessarily need it to be. It will have other “jobs” when we aren’t camping with it :)
