I've been following this post and have hesitated from replying, but here it goes... :)
I would tow the combo that the OP is talking about.. But, that's me..
Some of his other comments would lead me to believe that he really has no experience with towing anything or even knowing what to expect or not expect while tackling such a job on the first go. Biggest thing besides the whole 'hitch' thing is to make sure the truck has an integrated brake controller, or has the ability to wire an aftermarket one up and that it works! I would not tow it without functioning trailer brakes.
But, we all have had to take that first jump in the deep end and you sink or swim. How 'deep' the water is makes a difference too of course.
In the end, the OP is either scared to death or just going to do it and be fine..
Learning to do stuff via the internet or youtube is a great thing.. I've used those resources many times for tasks I was not familiar with.
Best of luck to the OP whatever choice is made. Mitch
