not sure about size but you ought to stay under 4000 lbs so you won't have any complaints about feeling like you are dragging an anchor. I am assuming that you have the stock 3.55 gears because you didn't say that you have the off road package.
and whats up with the triple threads? the site can be a little slow at times but you only have to click the submit button one time.

Nice triple thread fail. J/K.
What are you looking for? Travel trailer, pop-up?
I have a 7,000 pound 24' 1998 Jayco Eagle that I tow. Acually were going camping this weekend for Labor day. It basically maxes out the truck with 7,600 GVWR. But it still pulls it very good for the smallest V8 with 173,000 miles. But whatever camper you get you ARE going to need to put a Brake controller, tranny cooler, tranny temp gauge, External tranny filter, Synthetics in both rear differential. I also highly reccomend getting some towing mirrors, and not just some clip on ones, real tow mirrors in the link below. You are also going to have our brakes and suspension up to the task. YOu dont want ****ty brakes and loose suspension parts while towing.
