[QUOTE="Scott Tanner, post: 1022685, member: 58759"] a class 4 hitch has a rating of 1000 lb tongue, so conceivably, that would work. i wonder what the tongue weight would be loaded and full. it could be just the layout of the trailer. keep in mind, a trac really isn't all that different than a f-150 as far as parts, the wheelbase is similar. it is a little narrower, tho. what you need to observe is to not go above the GCVWR, which is 9500 lbs, which is not that hard to exceed. a f150 GCVWR is ot that much different. a purpose built lightweight trailer do a lot to reduce weight, even aluminum frames. a Dutchman is a well built trailer, and weighs in like it. also, any slideout can add 1000 lbs to the package. if you want, email me and we can talk on the phone if you want [/QUOTE]
