Tow vehicle and everyday driveability question

I have a 2012 WhiteHawk Jayco 28’ that is about 5800 dry and I guess may max is around 7000 fully loaded. I currently tow with a 2011 F150 5.0 with HD towing package and drive around 20k miles a year...

Go with the F250, Ram 2500 or GM 2500 for your next purchase. It'll tow your current trailer much better and you'll be able to get the 5th wheel when you're ready.

In about 5 years, I’ll look at a 5th wheel and go bigger truck then.
If you bought the bigger truck now, you will have most likely paid for it by the time your ready tio upgrade the TT to a fiver.

That's my plan at least.
