See, all answers are opinions.
Some feel that a little trip across NE is a large task, others consider it not much more than a trip to the corner Quick Mart.
Some liken the OPs trip to pulling that trailer full time for the next 10 years cross country and some realize he's not talking about a long term relationship between the truck and trailer.
Some feel unsafe or overwhelmed if the trailer is bigger than the truck, some don't care as long as it will pull with relative competency.
Some think a miserable experience is driving anything less than a loaded Escalade, some would cherish a straight piped 1st gen with a stick shift and a turned up pump.
Some like to change the story to one of their own, some address the question at hand without getting out in left field.

So goes the saga. Opinions are like a holes. Everyone has one, and they all stink! Lol

God forbid you present them with facts, it really confuses them.

And some think that they don't need seatbelts as they have never needed them.

This situation is like that.

There are VERY few nowadays that think that seat belts do not work,,,, but some still do not wear them. They understand the risk, and do it anyway.
Just because they took a chance without incident doesn't change the fact that it was a risk.

The OP WILL be over. Even if he does it without incident does not change that fact.

And some people get on line and ask if it's ok to use their phone in a thunderstorm or if they should leave the house if the wind is blowing out of the East.
Yes seat belts save lives, but what is a bigger risk, no seatbelt heading to the corner store or dirtbike on a rocky single track on the steep side of a Mountian?
Should no dirt bikes become a law too? How far do you go to protect yourself or others from the least common denominator?
Should, I only wakeboard where the water is 5' deep or less in case I fall, I can stand up and don't have to swim?
What about cooking? Maybe should only microwave so there's no chance of burning myself on the oven door...but then there's the danger of microwaves.....
Oh gawd, I'm going back to bed. I should move the bed down stairs so no risk of tripping on the stairs....
