Welcome to the forum from sunny Tennessee. We also tent-camped for many years with our kids and the entire under-age population of the entire neighborhood! We wouldn't take anything for those memories and you would have a hard time prying me from our RV!
Buster hinted (very subtly, I might add) that your half-ton might be slightly problematic. If you're interested, members here might be able to make a few suggestions as to how to improve your towing experience, without actually visiting your friendly Chevy dealer.
