I tow my 26 foot bunkhouse with a 1/2 ton because I bought the truck long before I bought the trailer. If I could do it all over again and knew the RV lifestyle was in my future, I would have purchased a 3/4 ton right off the bat. Yes, my 1/2 ton gets the job done even in the mountains of Montana, but it's not always an effortless endeavor.
I'll be upgrading to a 1 ton Duramax diesel just as soon as finances allow because my next rig will be a 5th wheel in the 12K pound range.
Do yourself a favor and buy a 3/4 ton right off the bat. You will appreciate it.
