This has nothing to do with them unloaded, only when both are towing 7,000 pounds and the electric brakes on the trailer fail to perform perfectly. Which brakes will have more capacity? Those on the 10,000 gvwr pickup or on the 7,500 pound gvwr model? Take a look at them sometime.
If you need a 3/4 T to tow your trailer, Go For It. As long as I am operating within my vehicles specs, that's all I need. If that means a 1/2T will do the job, than that's one tool of many that works. Unless of course you want to pay the freight than by all means tell me which of the tools to use.
