I'll be towing with a Chevy Silverado 1500 V8. Initially I plan to get a 22ft trailer, but I wanted a truck that could handle a 30ft trailer if I decide to upgrade in a couple years.
It may or may not, depending on the truck's model year, type of transmission, axle ratio, payload capacity, and actual loaded-ready-for camping GVW of the trailer in question.
I'm working with a Chevy dealer to ensure that the 1500 I choose to purchase is capable of towing 30ft trailer. If it's not, then I'll look into other options. But I really don't want to go up to the 2500, higher price and worse gas mileage.
