This past weekend I made three trips to the landscape place, where each time I picked up a ton of top soil with my 1/2 ton truck. Don't tell the weight police. Or many that respond to posts similar to this one.
My personal opinion is....
While the truck is more than capable of making this two hour trip, even while improperly set up, I don't believe the O.P. is capable of making such a trip.
A bit of tail dragging, while sitting up to see over the hood, is standard pickup usage.
A tad of trailer wiggle would be expected from a seasoned tower.
The O.P. does not sound as if he has any trailering experience. That could make for a white knuckles drive.
Suggestion for the O.P.....
Have the dealer install the WDH.
Have them explain hook up and unhooking.
Immediately after leaving dealer, find a large parking lot or deserted street. Go about 30 mph and wiggle the wheel hard left and right. Hit the brakes hard a couple of times. Give yourself some ideas of how the trailer responds...and how it effects your truck.
It's easy for for experienced towers to say "go for it". However, someone new to towing should seek professional set-up. With as much explanation of the set-up process as possible.
Then cautiously drive home.
