I definitely agree that it is important to have adequate truck, not to pull the trailer, but to stop it, and to hold it steady when hitting road debris or wandering off the edge of the pavement. Trailer brakes fail for a number of reasons and you want enough truck to hold the whole rig. It is a mass thing...too light a truck and that trailer is going to push it, or too light a truck and the trailer will pull it right off the road. It is not the pulling power that is the issue, it is stability when something goes wrong that is important. It takes a heavy truck to hold a heavy trailer stable.
