What size truck to pull a 2 horse slant Exiss with 4 foot shortwall?  Is a 3/4 ton gas truck sufficient?

Location: suffolk		3/4 ton is big enough for a 2 horse slant Exiss with 4 foot shortwall.

We pull with our F250 TD, A Kiefer 3 horse slant with 8ft SW LQ.

A 3/4 ton SD will serve you well. Make sure to order the camper and towing options with a spare tire. They will provide you with a factory mounted hitch built around the spare tire insert, in addition to an upgraded suspension, cooling and wiring.

This truck will handle many GN and BP trailers with ease.

Oh thanks ya'll for your responses. We hardly ever get a brand new vehicle so can't order anything - but will be looking for a low mileage one.
