I once towed my 31’ camper with my 2003 Escalade. A short distance. Once. It pulled it just fine, but that camper walked me all over the road. OTOH, I pull my boat all over South Louisiana with it, and full of fuel and other crap, it’s likely at 6-7K pounds.

This has been a great discussion as I struggle with the same question as OP in deciding on a new truck. I didn’t know Enterprise rented tow vehicles, so buying a 1/2 ton and renting a bigger one is the way to go. Right now, I’ve got a very giving friend that tows my camper back and forth to Grand Isle twice a year for the cost of gas, and buying him dinner at Hurricane Hole.
