Don't try things you can "get by with". Unless you can find a trailer like Cowman suggests DON'T try parking it on the fenders. It will not fit on a car trailer between the fenders unless you dish in at least one wheel, the M is two wide unless it has very narrow tires on it which is not likely. The usual 7000 lb GVW car trailer (GVW means trailer weight and tractor weight COMBINED) is too light, I think the next step up is about 9600 lbs. Trailer dealers are salesmen. The dealers I have talked to don't know anything about towing. Goosenecks are heavy, you need at least a 3/4 ton pickup to tow one. Put it behind a half ton, and the trailer plus tractor will be more than a half ton is equipped to handle. Very important that you know the towing capacity of your truck and pay no attention to someone who simply says "I've done that"
