I have to add that our pinweight is 3120 lbs. All of the trucks we've used to tow this weight have done a great job. I agree fully with the comment that all three mfrs' trucks can do a good job for you. With that part settled, you can buy the truck that best meets your other desires, needs, and deal from the dealer. Good luck.

To add to Chester's comments I looked at the payload ratings for the 2005 Fords. Sorry but I don't have that info for the other mfrs.

The 2005 F350 SRW has payload to a max of 4400 lbs. The dually goes to 5800 lbs max. The F250 goes to 3100 lbs max.

It's nice to have a lot of good choices in tow vehicle so there is room for personal preference on the configuration and brand.
