You can't go wrong with a Cummins. They're the worlds largest manufacturer of diesel motors and have the best reputation.
With that said after 2014 or so it's personal preference as Chevy and Ford seem to have gotten the bugs out.
Also bear in mind if your trailer has a gross weight of 12000 lbs that means your pin weight will be about 2200 lbs, 20%. Ad to that the hitch, passengers and anything in the truck pushes your payload close to 3000 lbs.
Sooo, make sure you get enough truck. It's always better to have too much truck than not enough. Good luck
