You definitely need a 3/4 truck or bigger.

I'd be happy to show it to you. If you saw it in person you would be wanting to bring it home.

7000# dry for a 31' boat with twin big blocks is pretty average.

That could be a shade light for Sonics, especially older ones.
My early 26' Sonic (single BBC) fully loaded (wet) was over 7000 lbs. loaded on the trailer. I suspect it was well over 5500 lbs. dry.

That's what the sonic literature listed for dry weight.

Good luck with your search. We use ours on Lake Michigan and it performs very well for the size. The pullout bed is great for the overnighting we do. Unfortunately its currently down with a motor problem, otherwise would be happy to offer a ride.
