I'm a little late on this but I would recommend the Equalizer hitch as well. As far as other items to consider: tires (passenger?), inflation (filled to max on sidewall), hitch setup?, weight distribution in trailer and yes, truck capacity.

You did not specify the year and other specs on your 150. If it isn't a recent model you will be overloaded on payload more than likely. You will also be close, if not over, the max trailer load etc. You can [B]pull[B] the trailer with the truck, it's just a matter of safety.

I've pulled my trailer, which is longer and heavier than yours, with my old Ram 1500 and it pulled OK; but it wasn't the experience I wanted nor did it provide the safety margins I wanted. My new 2500 does.
