The trailer is way too large and heavy, with all your stuff an passengers to tow the 331rls.

I would suggest for safety reasons, you consider a f250, gmc 2500 or dodge ram 2500. A diesel motor will pull the trailer with ease, as I can tell you from experience.

Do as you wish, but take some advice and upgrade your truck
I completely agree. I am planning on buying this exact TT for FT use and will be towing mine with my F-250. You might scrape by with a 1/2 ton, towing for short distances and/or moving it infrequently on flat land, but not in the mountains. Remember this trailer will weigh in at around 11,000 lbs when loaded out. Too much trailer for the truck. IMHO
