I know when I started looking at RV's everyone said to get a big truck and big trailer when you start or you will be upgrading shortly... exactly what happened to us. We had a Jayco 26BH, a small bunkhouse that was around 7500# and we towed with a 5.3 yukon XL (we loved our 26BH, jayco makes great trailers). Yes, it was within spec, but in the hills/mountains it was miserable. And I never felt super confident. Fast forward 2 years and we have Sprinter 311BHS (35') and a Chevy 3500 duramax. The difference in confidence with the HD truck is night and day.
I'm on the other side of the fence now, if you want a mid size or larger TT, then get an HD truck.
