I would agree that a 3/4 ton would be the way to go for such a big trailer.
For those that are misleading OP by saying that a 1/2 ton and a 3/4 are the same size and drive the same (and fit into parking garages the same) are full of it. Shame on ya.
Research turning radius for your favorite brand .5 ton vs .75 ton and report back.
Oh I know there is definitely a huge difference. Wow carbon footprint from above may appear very similar there is a large difference in the way it drives and everything else. I grew up on a farm hauling farm equipment and Kales using duallies (spelling)? And big rigs. I am more than comfortable driving any of these trucks. However, I have grown used to and enjoy being able to park my sedan in the garage at home in my spot at work by the door. Not to mention fitting in tight spaces at the courthouse. Sometimes you just want to jump in your little fast car and speed around and I would not be able to do that any longer with a 3/4 ton. I guess these are the sacrifices we have to make. It seems crazy that the purchase of a camper is going to alter so many other things!
