I am fairly certain, not absolutely positive though, that the truck can safely handle a trailer in these weight ranges. Input from experienced haulers very welcome, very needed actually,lol



Remember the pin weights they list are for empty trailers with empty gas tanks and no batteries. Whatever pin weight you see listed expect it to be about 25% higher when the trailer is loaded.
Also remember you and your wife are cargo and count against your capacity as well as the 5th wheel hitch and any other cargo you have.
