On the sticker, our TT is 6500 empty w/empty tongue of 650 so they can advertise it as "Half Ton Towable"... However, ready-to-camp we're over 8,000 w/loaded tongue of 1200 (15% of weight on hitch). Add our family of 5 & 1 dog & we have a payload of 1900 before adding any other gear in the PU bed...
So, IMO, most TT's that are "Half Ton Towable" can be brought home from the dealer (empty) w/average 1/2 ton truck but once you start adding family members & their gear you start running out of payload room w/most 1/2 tons...
