All these guys saying 3/4 ton are correct. My TT grosses at 8000 and I pulled it with my half ton a few times. It did ok. The following year I decided I needed a 3/4 ton tow vehicle so bought a 2006 Yukon XL 2500. It was a definite good move. Last year I needed a different truck and found a very low mileage 2011 Silverado 2500 HD. This was a big difference over the Yukon and a huge difference over the half ton.
Remember you’re pulling loaded up about 8000 lbs of plywood standing up on end. It’s different than pulling that laying flat. The more stability and braking power the better. You can do it with a half ton but it’s not the same experience.
