Stating that upfront would have yielded different answers... All you need is a hitch.

And I replied: " Without spending some money on upgrades, that's true."
But if you don't need to tow more than a john boat (row boat) or small utility trailer hauling one lawn mower, Ski-Doo, quad or something similar, then the bumper hitch and 4-pin trailer plug that's standard on your pickup is all you need.
HOWEVER, your trailer must be level front to rear after clamping the trailer coupler onto the ball in the bumper. If the trailer cannot be made to be level, then you'll still need to install a class III receiver on the frame of the pickup, then use a ball mount with the correct rise/drop to result in a level trailer.
