3/4 ton pickup and trailer should be a good match. GVW is gross vehicle weight. trailer may be 14,000 GVW, depending on axles. probabley two 7,000 axles so you can carry the 14,000 trailer plus the GVW of the pickup, maybe 8800 or near that. all sounds well but yopu have to have them licensed for the weight you want to haul but should not be greater than total GVW. I have 12,000 plates on my p/u truck and 14,000 on my trailer lets me gross 26000 total, my truck weighs 6500 and trailer weighs 7500 so that is 14,000 empty and lets me haul 12,000 of tractors, I have 30" trailer with tandem duals which may be heavier than you trailer. My 730, "M", and M-H 44 all with water in tires makes me avoid any scales!
