need advice on best truck to haul my trailor.

Yes, Get the tow package & a little heavier duty truck (3/4 ton)
Truck make? Different strokes for different folks.

Oh boy.. Another "What's the best" thread..

I knew an old salty kind of guy who worked on cars and trucks, who once told me many years ago that he would not drive a car or truck across the street with out a transmission cooler on it. they are that important he said. so towing a boat or TT is another darn good reason to get the tow package. I would check first to see if the 1500 series truck will handle the weight and get the one with the highest tow rating. You can go to trailer life.com and check with their link for truck ratings. from experience, I would suggest you also look at a 3/4 heavy duty truck. might be better in the long run.

Always get the tow package!

Yes you will need the tow package.
