I'd say a mid nineties Chevy 3/4 ton 6.5L turbo deisel with a towing package 
would work great. We have one of these, they aren't that noisy, in fact when 
you are inside with the windows up, you can't really tell its a deisel. And 
the get great gas mileage compared to big v-8 gasoline trucks, even during 
towing. But if you get one of these and its an automatic (4L-80E) make 
absolutely sure its been all updated. Our truck was brand new, 1993, ten 
years later the over drive gear turned out to be the weak spot if its not 
updated, so we found out the hard way. Other than this, ten years of heavy 
work, and even every day driving, and the trans was the only break down 
ever.
