parker.rowe As to you comment regarding the weight of the trailer that I wanted in the beginning was 9800 pounds. Realistically the dry weight is 7750 pounds with a max trailer weight of 9995. The manufacture claims it can be towed with a half ton truck. Since my truck is a half ton I figured I could pull this trailer with no problems. After reconsideration I feel that this might be too much for my truck to handle based on comments. Now I'm thinking of a smaller lighter trailer with a max trailer weight of 6600 pounds. They say to buy your third trailer first so we are looking to find a balance between comfort and safety.
