Pulling a 5th wheel RV trailer with a 1/2 ton.

This is true of a LOT of light trucks. GM did this "way back when." I'm not sure if Ford did or not
I've seen a lot of Chevy 1/2 tons on the side of the road, Broke. lol
They were over loaded with firewood and at least one axle hanging out cockeyed. lol many trucks !
