Well, lets work out some numbers here. My pickup has a 1:1 ratio in the transmission when in drive, and I have a 3.55:1 geared rearend.

Of course, if you put larger tires on the rearend and/or a different gear ratio (such as 2.73:1 ratio) you could go faster. Could it be done? Yes, but it would take some calculations, work, and $$. In the long run you would be better off to buy a trailer, at least in my opinion...
