Its def interesting to hear all the responses... Ive hauled my 5000# trailer (thats loaded with my horse) for years - 12 actually and ive never had an issue stopping or getting going, even when I put two horses in it.

But we've been kicking ourselves for buying the 1500 so its an excuse to maybe upgrade the truck too

i wouldn't, because even with an all aluminum gooseneck with a front dressing room you're close to 5,000 lbs most likely.
and could that truck stop that trailer if the trailer brakes failed--nope!

upgrade your truck. my motto is i'm not allowed to get a new trailer until i get a new truck. I want to be as safe as i can going down the road, regardless of what others do.
