NE South Dakota Clark, SD
If it has harrows and rolling baskets, it will probably have negative tongue weight. I have pulled a lot of Great Plains Turbotills to customers, and would never do it without a TRUCK. We pull 30 and 40 footers with our 9700 IH Semi and we have an added 4000 lb weight that goes on just ahead of the 5th wheel plate. I personally think you are nuts to try this with a half ton. If you are sure you want to do this, please don't go over 5 mph, to save your life and the person in the other lane. Just because you can pull it does not mean you can stop it. If you have to go down any big hills, it will push you where it wants to go.
