Check with your local DMV for the legal limits.. I am more concerned with stopping whats behind me than having the power to pull it.

Haulin feed a few years ago we weighed out at 37K total with a 3/4 ton quadcab and gooseneck flatbed. It pulled her down the road fairly well, but it was more than the brakes'd handle.

I believe the max legal load is based on the GVW of the pickup and trailer.
