    Absolutely. With what I will have in the bed and trailer I'll be pushing my little truck pretty good. When it comes to some things in life I have a pretty good tolerance for risk, however when it comes to having 4 tons (truck+trailer+load) hurtling down the highway I would never do something that unnecessarily puts myself or more importantly any fellow motorist at risk. I'm not going to let laziness, carelessness or cheapness be responsible for a lifetime of regret.
