Yes, you can do it with a 1/2 ton, you just need to remember that the p/u weighs less than the trailer/tractor combo. Anyone can get them going, you need to remember to keep distance and drive aware that it will take you far longer to stop. Just last night picked up a MasseyHarris 44 ~6200lbs with the 84 F150 and drove it 150 miles across the rolling hills of Iowa. No trailer brakes, 300ci 6cyl, 5 speed. Of course the stick gives you many advantages that a automatic doesn't. Just be aware of your stopping distance and take it easy. We usually run between 50 and 60. Don't use the overdrive.
