My 52 3800 pickup sits on the scale at 4,400 lb with me in it.

If the drive is flat, you have trailer brakes working, and don't try to go fast the you should be OK.

Someone is always hauling something huge with a small truck, but that does not make it a good idea.
I have hauled mine several times, always with a 3/4 ton or larger truck. I tend to think that you may or may not have just enough truck to pull it, it's close. If the trip were not so long you would be fine, but that's a long way to go to have problems because you did not bring a big enough truck. Or even if you do get home your "tow" truck may may find an excuse hang out in the shop for a while...
