IMHO, the most capable of the 1/2 ton trucks is the Tundra with about the same HP and torque as the Ford 6.2L gasser. The differential and the brakes were massive and with the 5.7L and 4:30 rear end it was a stump puller. It towed my 8000 lb trailer with no effort but I traded it for the reason most people trade 1/2 ton trucks... Payload. Just keep in mind there is more to selecting a TV than reading the published tow ratings and adding any of the aftermarket stuff is not going to increase any of the capacities any appreciable amount, if any.
