With the right gear, there isn't a problem making the truck sit level. I keep 10 psi in my Ride Rite air bags. With the 3,000 lb. Lance 1030 on the Dodge Ram 2500, the truck still sits level. Going down the road, I air them up to 40-50 psi. I also pull a 5,200 lb. trailer.
Tell your friend to go for the Eagle Cap ! I cannot speak enough for how much my wife and I love our '07 950... from the molded (Corian-style) counters and dinette table, to the basement storage, to the gel coat buffable/waxable exterior, to the fiberglass caps, and best of all, they have (yeah, yeah, I know, this is our opinion) IMHO 'THE BEST' wet bath out there. They have improved immensely with the Okanagan take-over. Happy Camping to you and your friends!

I spoken to my freind today, he is asking about the payload of those trucks. I told him, he and his wife need to know what they want in a TC, after that he will know what truck to get. I will take him on a fishing trip next weekend and will talk more with him.
