That is a 30-foot trailer that has an empty weight of about 5100 lbs. Fully stocked with all your household goods it will likely weigh approximately 6500 lbs.

Add the fact that without a WD hitch the front tires of your truck will be unloaded by a couple hundred pounds. Now consider the likelihood of best case vs. worst case scenario.
