Is there anywhere in brandon that has 3/4-1 ton truck rentals with 5th wheel hitches? Or anywhere local that will haul trailer to campsite/pickup after trip ends? Getting tired of the rough ride of my 3/4 ton truck and would like to downgrade to a 1/2 ton with much smoother ride quality. Only have 3/4 ton for our 5th wheel camper that gets moved on a good year around 6-10 times or so.

4 seasons will deliver out of virden. But it can get pretty hefty.  
 
Why wouldn’t you just get a seasonal site. Then you could use it every weekend all summer without having to haul it. Most seasonals will let you leave your camper there all winter. Buy a new vehicle and get more use out of your rv then just 6-10 times a year

We do currently have a seasonal site, but enjoy going with others to visit other locations in manitoba.

How heavy is your camper? The tow ratings on half tons keep increasing. Might get the job done if it’s not that many trips per year.

As a half ton owner I wouldn't call it smooth or comfortable but maybe it is compared to a 3/4 or 1 ton lol  
 
Have you thought about making your 3/4 ton ride smoother with upgrades, maybe some kind of suspension or shock upgrade , air bags or something like that, may want to talk with a shop like bullee that deals with suspensions ?  
 
I found my truck to be very bouncy when box and is empty so I keep a couple hundred pounds of patio blocks in year round, makes it a little more comfortable.

Its a little over 12k with gear and around 2300 on the pin. New Ford with heavy duty payload package and max trailering is about only one that fits the bill in 1/2 ton category.  
 
Have thought about upgrading suspension etc but want to trade while its worth a lick.
