Any brand of modern (2010+) half tons have capabilities for that TT. Not every half ton sold or on dealer lots can. You will want the upgraded engines, shorter rear axle, and afore mentioned heavy duty towing package from any brand.
Your current truck is probably appropriate when new. So as long as it is in good operating condition, then it should perform well. Flush all the fluids. Get a weight distributing hitch if the TT did not come with one. Learn how to adjust that. Get a proportional brake controller. Some form of wider/towing mirrors is good, and there are effective ones from $30-500.
