KEEP THE CURRENT TRUCK! If you go "lesser" you'll regret it! Instead, pick up a new (or used) car (small, gas, get's 35 mpg or better) and use it for a daily driver. BIG mistake if you drop down with your truck!
We have our 3500 dually Diesel, 4 door crew cab, long bed pickup for towing and as a backup daily driver or if we both need to go separate directions. We have a much smaller Chevy Equinox as our primary daily driver. I also have a utility trailer I tow with the truck.
This is a much better approach. You need the truck for towing the camper. Get a second small car that's economical on fuel.
