I asked dad and he said the trilaer has 2, 3500lbs axles under it and he's hauled his 560 with it behind his 1/2 ton so my Madza should handle an M just fine if I'm careful.

That trailer was severely over-loaded with a 560 on it. Stop, think, do the math. 2 axles of 3,500# capacity each gives you only 7,000# capacity. The trailer itself weighs 2,000#, so now you are down to only 5,000# load carrying capacity. Your M weighs 6,000#, and that 560 probably weighs 7,000#, so it just won't work. If the highway patrol or the d.o.t. sees you out on the road with that combination, the truck, trailer, and tractor will be impounded right there and you will be paying a very hefty fine.
