My first truck was a 4 door Dakota which was fine when my kids were smaller, moved to the Ram 1500 crew cab for the cab space. It is a 5.5 foot bed, which I can get 4 bikes and 2 inflatable kayaks in. As for power, never been an issue with a pop-up. The Dakota had issues in higher passes like Monarch or Wolf Creek, but nothing that would stop you.
Guy next door to me has a 30' trailer and tows with a F150 without issue as well. He just needed an equalizer hitch for smoother towing.
