I don't own a trailer, but I have rented several. If you use a tandem axle (car trailer), you will have to have at least one wheel dished in or it won't fit between the fenders, so for shows you will have to have both wheels dished in. Assuming the trailer weighs 2000 lbs and your M 5000, you are at the max gvw for two 3500 lb axles. So, for a car trailer, you really should be looking at more capacity. I have rented both 7000 and 10000 lb capacity. The 10000 lb ones weigh about 3000 lbs, that's getting too heavy for my half ton even with an H. So you need a minimum of a 3/4 ton truck and a 10000 lb GVW trailer, unless you can find one rated between 7000 and 10000 lbs. A small goose neck would be better.
