Our current truck has zero problems pulling our 21K rig with it's 450/1650 Detroit.
The replacement Kenworth that is getting the bed built for it right now should do a little better, 500/1650 Cummins with a Eaton 13 speed Ultrashift. I know that a LOT of people pull trailers over 20K with a pickup but a MDT or HDT will do the job and not break a sweat doing it.
My GVWR is 35,900 with a GCWR of 75,900. I like having a lot of safety margin towing and the wife likes the comfort.
