What year is the 2500 and what is the GVWR?

What size 5er you looking at going to.

In 5 years they might be up to a 1000 lbs of torque.

Do you plan to buy the trailer now or in 5 years? Sorry, I don't see a problem.

Buy a new truck today and you will probably buy again in 5 years anyway.

I would wait. You may fall in love with a different truck when it comes time to tow... Drive what you have until you get the new fifth wheel...
