I have a GMC Sierra (tows 9000 lb) with a 6' 10" bed. I have to leave my tailgate down to carry my golf cart (1000 lb) so I can't carry my golf cart and tow my travel trailer (6000 lb). I'm wondering ...
Extending the hitch will be like putting a pipe on a wrench handle, I think. I expect it will will effectively increase tongue weight significantly. Many years ago, I had an 11 ft truck camper. I built a 4 ft long extended hitch to tow my fishing boat. It worked OK. BUT, it was a light-weight boat with minimal tongue weight.
