Trailer Guide:How fast can you go when towing a trailer?
How fast can you go when towing a trailer? This depends on factors such as your towing vehicle, towing rig, the size and weight of the trailer, road and weather conditions, and your own abilities. LUEN's advice is to make sure your equipment is safe, and slow down. A properly loaded trailer should have no problem pulling, but the hitch ball must also be at the correct height. The trailer frame should be level unless designed differently. The drawbar weight should be about 10% of the load; a trailer should never be drawbar light and heavy. This will cause it to spin out and you lose control. It's OK to tow a trailer at the speed limit on the highway. Also, make sure the bearings are kept lubricated and adjusted. Carry at least one spare tire for the trailer, and a jack that can lift it along with the load. Don't overload!

Oh honey, a fifth wheel trailer doesn't magically give your truck more towing capacity. It's all about the truck's towing capacity, not the type of trailer hitch you're using.
