Not the problem I was expecting to have

I can only answer a couple of those questions. First, the payload is 1500 lbs., but there was nothing in the car but me and a few random hair brushes, reusable shopping bags, my purse, and a water bottle so I should not have had a payload issue yesterday, I wouldn't think. Second, the new truck will be whatever we can get used. My husband wanted a used trailer and I overrode him on that so the truck will have to be used (and big enough to handle a trailer upgrade in the future--we just wanted to see if we were actually going to use the trailer so we tried to buy something that could be towed with my car for a few months).
