I flat tow a Wrangler behind my camper 1/2 the time when traveling. With the weight I, and you, will be carrying in the bed you don't want to add any more weight to you GVWR. I have the blue ox tow bar and a brake buddy. There are many brands out there so choose what you like and to your budget. Like many posters stated above you need a supplement brake system for your toad. An extra 4K+ lbs pushing you forward when you try and stop will destroy your trucks braking system and present a hazard for you and drivers around you. The set up will not be cheap initially but will pay off in the long run.
