JMHO, of course, but consider a fifth wheel over a bumper pull, and at least a 3/4 ton pickup to pull it with. There are some very nice small fifth wheels around, and a fifth wheel pulls so much nicer than a bumper pull.
If price is a concern on your tow vehicle, you might be better off to consider a used 2-3 year old 3/4 ton over a new 1/2 ton pickup, which lets Toyota out. I'm not bagging on Toyota, they make a great pickup, but as far as I know they're only available in 1/2 ton. Ford, Chevy, Dodge, all a matter of preference.
1/2 ton pickups are really light duty vehicles. 3/4 ton and up have better brakes, suspension, cooling, charging, etc as they are set up to tow and haul heavier loads.
Good luck on your search!
