Enclosed trailer 24' + ?

looking for some real life feedback.

my dually, moderately modded, can or should be adequately powered to pull a 28' enclosed trailer?

i'm not going to be loading it with stacks and stacks of bundled newpaper.

typical items....a mid sized car, zero-turn mower, gas grill. etc. mostly for storage 6 months out of the year.

but if i have to drive it...i'd like to know it can.

i know there are guys pulling a 3 car wedge trailer. just wanted to hear some feedback.

thank you

You'll be fine. Especially since you have a dually which will offer some additional lateral stability for cross winds when bumper towing such a large trailer.

It's not going to be a problem. Heck, I have a 8'x8'x24' enclose car hauler and my 2500 pulls it with ease. Have a anti sway hitch does help when passing 18 wheelers.

An extreme example but still something which can happen with large enclosed bumper pull trailers and heavy crosswinds.
