That alot of trailer dealers will not install a fifth wheel setup or even a 7000 GVW tow behind trailer setup to someone with a 1/2 ton pickup. When I bought my 9000pd GVW setup I had my 1/2 pickup there with a hitch on it, the dealer said that even with a 7000 trailer he would not let me tow it out of the yard. He stated that I had to have a 3/4 or larger in order to safely pull anything from 7000 and above. I have to agree, a Farmall " H " weights in about 3725 an " M " 5,075 add a little more than a thosand for trailer weight and you have over 2 tons behind you going down the road with an " H ", over 3 tons with an " M ". Out here in the hills I wouldn't want to be in front of you, even on flat land that a real good load for a 1/2 pickup to pull. I agree with the other fellow, why not go to a smaller tractor or get a bigger truck just to be safe. Just my two cents worth :o)
