I have been reading about 1/2 ton and 3/4 ton pickups and trying to understand about GVWRs and trailers. Mostly I've being looking for 3/4 ton. But could I pull a 25.5 foot 5th wheel with a GVWR of 5800 lbs with a 2004 Ford 150 extended cab and long bed with a payload of 7700? I have seen a lot of used 1/2 tons in my price range(cheap), but not so many 3/4 ton. I thought about going into debt, but I decided to stay cheap and keep my budget of $5000 and save to buy a newer truck in a couple years. I probably will be taking a half dozen trips a season and no mountains beyond the Ozarks. Should I keep looking for a 3/4 ton?
Thanks, Mary
