Welcome to the Forum...
Gosh, I'll be honest and blunt with you (and I hope others will chime in with more honesty). It's a beautiful trailer but at 36 feet and over 7600 lbs dry and a bunkhouse with a family and all their stuff...you are going to put the hurt on a 1500 series (half ton) pick-up.
I see lots of great memories for you family in the future and I am seeing a new truck also...
Good luck with it all.
Even in flat Indiana you're going to struggle going over speedbumps. That 1,500 pounds also includes passengers. Did you get weight distribution bars and a sway control. Does your truck have a tow package? Happy Shopping.
