Looking to move up to the new 4212 Seismic

New to this forum and I posted my question in the towing thread but thought I should post it here instead.

My husband and I currently pull our Jayco Eagle 314bhds with his GMC 3500 diesel truck. We sold our house and are planning on living full time in our camper for at l east 1-2 years, so we want to trade up to the 2016 Seismic 4212. Would anyone know if our current vehicle can pull it?

It would depend on the specific model of truck you have and the year. Is it dual rear wheel? Looking at the weights of the trailer and GMC trailer guide its over the limit for most of them.
According to Jayco the trailer weight dry is 15765 lbs and has 4235 lbs of carrying capacity. 20k total.
Pin weight dry is 3410lbs too.
