I live in Garden City, about 100 miles east of you. That tornado and aftermath have been on the national news about every day since then. Worst thing that happened in this area in 50 years. You can reverse one wheel on your M and make it fit. But if you don't like both reversed (I don't either), and you haul a lot, you have to do that every time. Some people load from the front. Others that have strong fenders attempt to drive over them or rest the rears on the fenders themselves, I definitely do not recommend that. Basically, if you have a 3/4 ton pickup, you need a gooseneck or an over the axles type trailer. Those are too heavy for a half ton. I consider an M to be too much for a half ton anyway, (possibly not for the latest models). AND, unless you have a load equalizing hitch, with the rear in front of the fenders there will be too much weight on the back of your pickup.
