I probably have some pictures somewhere but not going to look for them. Reading the other responses and looking at pictures the experiences are variations of many of my own. My early hauling experiences were as a teen hauling 2 wagons of grain behind the 8N and Sherman combo, with only one brake working, 10 miles to the grain elevator. My early (legal?) hauling was with a 1979 1/2 ton Chevy Suburban, 350 engine and 2.73 axle on a receiver hitch. I pulled a 16 foot tandem axle "homade" trailer with no trailer brakes that weighed about 2000 pounds. I carried my '51 8N (same one as above) with loaded tires, the 2 bottom Dearborn Economy plow and a 6 foot double disc. No hard launches, secondary roads only, never over 45 mph. Slow down way ahead of lights and stop signs. Usually had one of my sons with me to help. Survived without incidents. Sold the trailer and I was glad to get rid of it. I have had several 1/2 ton, 3/4 ton and even a 1 ton dually with 6.5 turbo diesel with 5 speed manual transmission and 4.10 rear axle. My current trailer is 18' (16' deck and 2' beavertail), rated at 10,000 lbs and with a 12,000 lb winch. My current truck is a 2018 1/2 ton Silverado with built in trailer brake controller. It is equipped with E rated tires all around and airbag assist on the rear axle. I'm using the stock receiver hitch. Normally I only haul one N, maybe with an implement but did one time haul my son's F150 to a repair shop (not trying to badmouth Ford, I've owned many. He just needed help) That said, I did haul 2 Ns to Archbold, Ohio for auction last year. I also have a 24 foot enclosed trailer rated at 10,000 lbs. I typically don't have more than 3000 to 4000 lbs of cargo. I use a load transfer hitch with this trailer. Lastly, I keep my speed down. I keep my x-way speed no higher than 65. Truckers usually are passing me and many, many, many recreation trailers blow my doors off!
