May I be so bold as to ask, where are you going to find a 19-22' 5er with such a light weight of 5500# loaded?? Just haven't heard of too many that weigh that little...as stated, no more than that weighs, you could do it with a 1/2 ton....
Make sure you're using GVW and not "dry" or "empty" weights, those are far from helping you any....Of course, if you're going to go with a 3/4 ton truck....there is no need to worry about a 5,000-5500# truck...just do yourself a favor and use 5er' actual GVW and go from there.
