Lots of rigs can pull a v-20, but not all of them can stop so good. Like others said weight is important. I've pulled with an old 1997 land cruiser for years, (it's in my shop now for repairs & I'm bummed) Nothing better, full time 4wd, turns tight and that sucker weighs a ton (or 2 1/2).
Over my career I've towed with anything you can imagine, vans, minivans!, suburbans, jimmy's, s-10's, 4x4's of all makes, brush trucks, and I'd say that the only thing that compares to my cruiser is a suburban, The suburban has more power, but far bigger turning radius. SUV's definitely out pull pickups because of more rear weight. Shorter pickups with 4wd would be my second choice.

All that being said, I live near you & unless you plan to use some of the more primitive sandy launches you should be fine launching & recovering with anything that would tow your rig safely 2 or 4wd, although you probably want to avoid a standard tranny, ramps can eat up a clutch pretty quick.
