Very few 5.5' bed trucks have the payload for even the modest "half ton towable" 5th wheel RVs. Most Ford and GM twins have about 1500-1800 pounds as equipped, on dealer lots. Take away 200 pounds for a slider hitch, however much you and family weigh, even a 1000 pound loaded 5er will overload the truck.
What should you order? 3/4 or SRW 1- ton with 6.5' bed.
