See if you can rent a truck or test drive one for a week-end before you buy, take it on a 3 -4 hours test drive.
I drive a new Ford F 150 with a tow package and it is for me uncomfortable if you are behind the wheel for over a few hours. If you are on the shorter side the seat is terrible and most people who ride in it say is rough from a passenger perspective.
I would say the best tow vehicle for me would be an early 2000's Chevy (gasp) suburban.
That's not a bad idea. I am kind of short at 5'7" tall. With my hip mobility issues, it can be difficult getting into a tall vehicle. It helps to have the bolt-on side steps.
Actually, that's why my coworker brought up the idea of a 10 year old truck. He has an early 2000's Tahoe and said that Chevy really did their work when trying to make trucks and larger vehicles more comfortable. Then Ford and Chrylser followed in their footsteps.
