Well, I just hauled two M’s home one with a loader and fluid the other bare with a trailer behind by 94 Powerstroke. I borrowed a 28 ft beaver tail double axle dully trailer and the one tractor barely was hanging on. The whole rig weighed in right at 28,000 pounds and it was a load especially pulling hills! As far as electric brakes, they work ok with a good controller, but I think there are better systems out there. A trailer only 20 ft long is short if it is a beaver tail because you only have about 16 ft of deck. Although I much prefer a gooseneck to a bumper hitch trailer, the GN is a much higher load and center of gravity. Not that this is a problem, just something to keep in mind.
