Stick to around 25' or less. Gross trailer weight no more than 6500#. V8 half ton will pull more than that, but you may not be happy if you are going to cover a lot of miles in varying terrain.

You will also have to set your rig up with a weight distributing hitch, probably can negotiate one with the trailer dealer.
