Stick to around 25' or less. Gross trailer weight no more than 6500#. V8 half ton will pull more than that, but you may not be happy if you are going to cover a lot of miles in varying terrain. It will be a chore to find a truck that is good for towing. Most half tons are set up for mileage and the gearing is too high to make a good tow vehicle. Good trucks are out there, just have to know what you are looking for. I think the mileage guesses are optimistic, I tow 5000# trailer with a 5.7 Dodge and get between 8 and 11 MPG. You will also have to set your rig up with a weight distributing hitch, probably can negotiate one with the trailer dealer.
