That truck wouldn't last 10 minutes on our highways here, as the state police would have that thing impounded as soon as it made landfall. Obviously over the CGVW of the vehicle.

The smart car is about 1800 lbs alone

HUH! Anybody can pull a trailer with a Smartcar on top of a dually. The real challenge would be seeing JKM put the dually on top of the Smartcar and pull the trailer. You can do it buddy, I know you can!
