malcod, why do they call an F150 or a 1500 a "1/2 ton truck" nwhen they can typically carry more than 1,000 lbs? Bottom line .... ignore all the noise. Payload of the truck and GVWRof the trailer are the numbers of concern. Calculate pin weight using 15% for TT or 23% for a fiver and if it's below the payload you should be good (providing you're not trying to take a cord of wood with you).
