I don't think it is our intent to scare you - but it is good that you are scared! If you are ever in an accident on the road, you are going to be "bait" for everything. Just the 3/4 ton badging on your truck under a 39' trailer are enough to give it all away to any highway patrolman who has much experience.

Your truck was never designed to haul a trailer of that size. The tire/loading badge for your truck clearly states "The combined weight of occupants and cargo should never exceed 1,949 lbs.". As pointed out you are severely overloaded on payload, truck GVWR, and probably GRAWR.

Sorry to be frank, but there is no sugar coating for this one...
