since 1999 my grandpaws work/farm truck has been a 2wd 3/4ton chevy we can put both tractors on a trailer(JD5000 series and older JD1050) and still pull em through a pasture with just mud dawgs on the rear so i wouldnt worry about it for towing me personally i want a 2005 ram 2500 with a 5.9 my buddy has one and i love it it turns and rides better than my frontier!
You'll have to get a class III receiver hitch. I'm surprised that truck didn't have a factory hitch being a hemi 4x4... You'll also need to wire it for 7-pin plug and install a brake controller.
There's a few companies around that sell new trailers for what most people want for used ones. If I had it to do over, I would buy new instead of buying the headache I did, and I've spent much more on my trailer than I would have with a new one. www.trailersforless.com has some good deals if you see something in the 'on the lot specials' that you like.
They've gone up some since I looked, but this is what I would look for: http://www.trailersforless.com/290104332458.html. Its a relatively light trailer which will help you out when you're loaded down for a wheeling trip pulling those hills to Harlan
