LilRed, the other posts are correct in that you should be fine with a 3500 4wheel truck. Your current 2500 can certainly pull the 5er. Question is can you “carry” the weight. Even if you are heavy, you NEVER should carry anything over your RGAWR weight rating. I made the mistake of buying my truck before I bought my 5er. My truck has been modified and modifications DOT certified to now carry my 5er. I am still at the upper limit of my modifications so I am careful about how much weight I add and carry minimal water while traveling. Long story, but you haven’t bought your 5er yet, So you have a decision to make. Buy the 5er knowing you need to upgrade your truck, or don’t buy the 5er. Obviously, it sounds like you are prepared to upgrade your truck, but make sure that is what you are going to do before you buy that 5er. Good luck and happy camping.
