To the OP.. 20-35 foot trailer that is not more than #5000 is gonna be hard to find these days...
My old 2003 Prowler is 22' from bumper to hitch and weighs every bit of it's GVWR of #5000...
If you want no more than a #5000 LOADED TT, any 1/2 ton truck will do it fine.
If you want a #5000 DRY weight trailer, then you will have to consider the CCC of it and how much you think you will load and on and on..
I tow what I tow because I don't really need anymore trailer.. Plus, don't want to get rid of a great trailer that has been trouble free since new.
I really like my F150 and getting a 3/4 or one ton truck would just be a waste in my case...
Gotta do what you gotta do in the end however.
Good luck!
