Use whatever you have to pull your trailer. Personally i prefer a truck but we do landscape as well. I've a 16 foot dump trailer that weighs almost 4k pounds empty an 18' utility trailer for the kabota utility tractor and my 18' landscape trailer that i pull everyday with mowers blowers trimmer and edgers. I wouldn't want to pull a trailer everyday without a diesel truck it would just destroy an SUV doing what we do everyday. But not everyone has the set up
