I didn't check on pricing, but the trailer is rated at 3800 lbs payload.
Sounds fairly useless for a Dakota.

When I had my Dak weighed for the custom springs the weight was 4720. As I
weigh quite a bit less than 920 lbs and I'm guessing the lift parts and now
much larger tires have only increased the weight I think I'm quite out of
luck with the U-Haul route.
