In spite of all the naysayers my F-150 Lariat with a max tow package handles our Cougar 1/2 ton 25RES with no trouble at all and even loaded we are below spec.
Just know the limits of your tow vehicle and buy within those limits taking into account the cargo you will also need to carry. It can be done, I do it every time I take the rig out and have not had a single Oh Crap moment.
I had the F-150 and bought my 5th wheel according to what I had. If I had a choice and was buying an new tow vehicle I would get an F-350 class rig. Not because my F-150 will not tow what I own safely but because I would like the ability to buy a bigger RV.
So if you are buying a new tow vehicle, buy as big as you can afford. Trust me, you will eventually want to upgrade
