The questions one might ask: You have a crew cab. What travels with you in that crew cab that cuts your weight capacity down?
You need to run it over a scale loaded with all the gear, passengers, toys and see what you really have left to play with.
It's going to get awkward with a short box. You don't need an electric awning. Nice thing about a manual is you can set them really low to block the low sun level. You don't need a generator either. They are really annoying when built in. Dual batteries are nice. Oven is essential (IMHO).
If you can, see where the center of gravity is in the campers you are considering. It will make a huge difference when on the truck.
