They will all pull your trailer. Each has advantages and disadvantages. I think I would be happy with the Cummins in a Chevy.
My Ram has a Torsen differential, and I really don't like it. It jerks and grabs a little just backing it out of the garage. After several hours towing on the interstate in hot weather it feels like it will just leapfrog into the ditch after stopping for fuel.
I don't like the Fords diesel design with all the components stuffed in the valley of the V-8. But I sometimes wish I had gone to their F450 now that I'm towing a 40ft 5th that is pushing 18,000#.
I'm not crazy about the idea of the Isuzu engine in the Chevy and GMC, even though I haven't heard of any particular issue.
Pay yore money and take your choice.
