I pulled a 30' triple slide for 7 years with a 3/4 ton. I was real close to my gross weight but all was fine.

We have a 30TS and were towing with a Ford F250 6.0L PSD. The TV pulled it just fine. I added Firestone air springs so that the truck would ride level (squated 3/4-1 inch). We traded that truck because of the engine problems Ford was having with the 6.0L

BB_TX,
We pull ours with a 3/4 ton Dodge Cummins diesel with 4 wheel drive and haven't had any problems. Sometimes when we find a smooth road I tend to forget it's behind me.
I'm probably going to add air bags only to bring the truck back to level as it tends to squat about an inch or so.

bb_tex,
Congratulations on getting a great deal on that new Ford. The 3/4 ton would have worked fine but I don't think you'll ever regret getting the 1 ton.
Now you and your significant other can load up the 5vr till the house is empty and hit the road!!

I do believe that "decorating" really isn't the term for Donna's trailer More like - re-design the entire trailer, don't you think?
