Need some advice. I am starting to shop for a new pickup. I pull a 30' travel trailer quite often. My present pick up is a 1997 Chevy C1500. I would like my next pickup to be able to pull the camper a bit easier. The old one pulls it fine but really has to work a little harder than I would like it to.

My question is what is the most important consideration? Horse power, torque, gear ratio or what.

I'm not much of a motor head so any advice would be appreciated. I don't want this to turn into a For vs. Chevy vs. Dodge discussion. I will buy whichever brand best suits my needs.

Thanks.
