[QUOTE="gink595, post: 16725, member: 1675"] Depends on the size of the skidsteer and trailer, I have a Bobcat 773 that weighs around 6000-6300, but I have a grapple bucket that weighs about 1000 on it's own so say 7300 plus another 2500-3500# for a trailer, I think that would be a bit much for a 1/2 ton, maybe a very occasional use but not for everyday use. I have a 1 ton diesel truck and I know it's back there for sure, like someone else mentioned be sure to have the trailer brakes it's a neccesity for safe traveling. I guess overall I would say no, a 3/4 truck would be minium for longevity and saftey. [/QUOTE]
