Your camper will have a pin weight around 3000-4000 lbs. That's without including anyone in the truck/ fuel / firewood / dog / or whatever else you may be carting along.

You are exactly correct, but you can never convince a guy driving a 3/4 ton truck that it's not enough truck.
Gary's comment "Consider all your requirements, not just the TOW," misses the entire point. Towing is the most important thing that truck will ever do, even if only part time. The truck needs to be purchased that will do the toughest job/heaviest job, not the easy jobs.
