It can be done but you have to be realistic about what your trucks capabilities are. We had a 2003 f150 supercrew and I used that to tow a 2006 wildcat 24rl @25.5ft long, its pin weight was only around 970 lbs , dry weight at 6900 or so . For 2 of us it was fine and we travelled light and long distances . But when it came time to get a new truck I went to a gas 6.2 f250 club cab long box and then later traded the trailer in on a 31ft Cougar. The smaller and lighter fifths are out there but you have to figure out if they are suitable to your needs. Its the pin weight that'l get ya not so much the wind drag , towing a fiver is much nicer than towing a TT
