Mx6000 HSTC and trailer

I doubt it, I have a Gr L6060 and with a 6" bush hog on the back with the loader, I have to run the tractor all the way up on my 22" trailer (14K). I notice my 2019, F250 will squat some when I do that. I think you will notice a bit of sway from the 4 ply tires on the 1/2 ton vs the stiffer 10 ply on the 3/4 ton also.
With the fold up attached ramps i'm not sure it would even fit without hanging the loader out over the tongue of the trailer. anything with a cutter on it is always fun to get the weight right behind a 1/2 ton. IME

Not sure if this is helpful but I have an MX6000 and have trailered it with the Land Pride RCR1884 attached. I have a MidSota 22ft trailer. I'd like to try backing the tractor and cutter on next year and figuring out a way to rest the loader on the ramps or make up something for the bucket to rest on. The other possibility is to remove the FEL when I go to a friend's place to cut his fields.
I ended up buying and installing a Curt load leveling kit for my truck/trailer.
Depends…I am not really sure the weight capacity of your trailer or the tires loading…but are you going across town or out of town? Flat terrain or hilly and curvy? I suspect you may be asking a bit out of the 1/2 ton and trailer package. Think about fast stops or lane changes to avoid accidents in a variety of inclines declines etc. or a person text that causes you to avoid. If trailer not balanced properly it could be very dangerous. Balanced load is really important. If you can balance the load within safe load limits I’d honestly be more concerned about your transmission if you plan to haul very far or in hilly areas.
We tow his combination 10 times a year with no issues, but it’s a 10 mile tow each way on back roads. I would not do it on the interstate
