See mileshuff's post above. If you go SUV, you'll likely need to buy a hybrid if you want anything over 20'. I drive an older F-150 with max cargo and max tow and tongue weight limits me to about 6,500 lbs which depending on manufacturer is a 24-26' model in the lights/ultralights. You won't come close to towing that with an SUV or improperly equipped 1/2 tons.
If you go shorter with no slides, you may be at the margins. Still have the problem of frontal area which is limited on many SUVs. Best SUV to tow was probably Chevy Suburban on 3/4 ton chassis.
