The trailer weighs on the brochure 11,780 lbs and my truck is 5,858lbs so it looks like I am in the limits. The pin weight is 2,300lbs and my GAWR is 6,084lbs. IT would appear I can tow this legally - insurance compliant. Has anyone out there dealt with this issue with the same type of vehicle and trailer. Just making sure I am not missing something. Thanks

Thanks for answering my question above. I think I will have to look for a 3500 truck.
