The bed length short or long will not matter much at all. A longer wheelbase tow vehicle is the best but, with those trucks until you are asking about a 5er it's mainly just your choice. The GVWR is a factor as others mention when looking at that truck pulling that trailer.
By the way a co worker just got back from a big cattle auction where a Dodge dealer was selling 2500/3500 trucks at real low prices. He shows me a photo and said the dealer is having a hard time selling these. Well, I looked and said yeah I know why there all short beds, ranch guys need long beds. He said yeah, that's what the dealer told him too.
