It would be a lot of work for the truck, I don't think it was built for that much weight. If you have a good hitch, trailer brakes, and the truck is in good shape, tires rated for that much weight, I MIGHT try it, but wouldn't want to go over 55 on the freeway, there are always people who will cut in close, and you will need extra room for an emergency. I wouldn't want to do a lot of stop and go driving, it will take a long distance to stop, and the chances of rear ending someone are very great with that much weight, and the one who hits from the rear is always considered at fault, even if someone cut them off and stopped fast. Another tip, chain it down good. If it comes off a policeman can give you a ticket for an unsecure load, besides whatever other damage there will be.
