diver...where did you hear that about CA not allowing campers off the truck?
I think I would look into that a bit further before I got too excited.

I am sure plenty of Folks here could confirm/deny that...

As far as a 1/2 ton versus an HD truck for a TC?
You could "get by" with the 1/2 ton...but it will not hold up as well in the long term with that kind of use.
If you already owned the 1/2 ton...then sure...try it.

You have the luxury of buying both at the same time...no one ever complains they have too much truck. The cost difference between the 2 is likely negligible...and you will probably have to upgrade components on the 1/2 ton before you put the TC on; tires/wheels, suspension.

I would not buy a 1/2 ton intentionaly for the purpose of hauling a TC.

You should take a look at this thread going on right now...pretty much sums it up.

p.s. If you are asking about hauling TC's...be wary of TT advice...2 different games.
