Be patient and maybe a 2619 or 2720,SL,or SD might come up for sale. Then you might feel more comfortable with the weight. I tow with a 98 Dodge Ram 1500, a 2720SL and I wouldn't want to tow anything bigger. I wouldn't want to tow it with my wifes 2007 Highlander unless I was really forced to. Towing within manufacturer limits is legal but your margin of safety is reduced and you'll be going up the big hills right behind the big rigs, 20mph. I used to have a fire truck as a hobby vehicle and it weighed 39,000 pnds on two axles. I've driven big vehicles before so it's not like I'm some person who is scared of driving loaded vehicles. You have to be comfortable or you won't enjoy it. Towing one first will really let you know if you are comfortable with your choice. Of course verify your tow rating before towing any trailer to find out exactly what YOUR vehicle can tow and the loads it can handle legally and safely. Take your time and good luck Robert
