We tow a 3,800 lb (fully loaded) travel trailer with a 3/4-ton diesel and it's been nice experience so far. I also drive it around town and it rides great. We are currently towing at 51% of the GCWR, 28% of max tow and when fully loaded have approximately 600 lbs of available payload. Still use a WD hitch, mostly for the sway control function.
We used to pull the same trailer with a FJ Cruiser and it did fine, but towing with the 3/4-ton is much more comfortable.
I'm sure a 1/2-ton Ford EB would do a wonderful job pulling our little trailer, but I'm not suffering pulling it with a larger TV.
