1/2 ton for towing 26FT TH

I have a 11,000# TH and wouldn't even think about hooking a 1/2 ton to it. New trucks may pull it but I doubt will handle that trailer. You have to consider that you have that heavy motor up front that anchors the front end down to the road and steady. You have bigger brakes and everything else that I doubt is in the 1/2 tons. I have the F-350.
I get a little extra exercise when I take it shopping because I have to park it in the open, not in the parking slots, but the extra safety of the heavy truck on the road whether pulling or empty is worth the slight inconvenience......
