Got a very good trade on my 2009 Dodge 2500HD so I sprung for a new Ram 2500HD crew cab, short bed Tradesman, 4x4. Cummins, of course.
First clue was the Class 5 hitch receiver. It came with the Class 3-4 adaptor so my 10,000# hitch will work. Max for the Coleman TT is way less.
The truck is rated for near 17,000# trailer.

Keep the adapter for 1 off situations and get a 2-1/2" hitch stinger, or your certain to bend the hitch pin and/or wallow out the receiver holes eventually using the adapter for heavy/ repeated use.
