Why 2008 and newer? I highly recommend something with a 6-spd trans, which means 2009+ Ford and GM half tons. Oh, how about Yukon Denali 2007+? 6.2L/6-spd rocket. If you want to spend less, then a Ford 5.4L with 3.55 or 3.73 or GM 5.3L 3.42 or 3.73 would be good. Ram 5.7L 3.55/3.73. All good choices for mid 2000s.
I would not go smaller than full sized half ton. No Durango, Dakota for example. and I would not tow it with a 6-cyl unless it was turbocharged, like late model Ford Ecoboost or Ecodiesel.

Just about any 1/2 truck with a V8 will handle that light load. Use a quality hitch, weight distributing (wrong name but somebody will correct me - brain spaced tonight).

Keep in mind that towing an RV teds to put many/most vehicles over some rating other than the manufacturer's tow rating. If you were towing a boat or a flat bed trailer, then maybe those ratings could be more valuable. What are you trying to tow?

Do a search on trailer life towing guides. It will at least give you a comprehensive list for each year.
