I second the motion!

LOL!!

Seriously, get a reciever hitch with a drop to make the trailer frame so it sits as close to level as possible.

Also, if you are towing from the bumper, a reciever hitch will improve towing performance, you'll notice it right off the bat.

Your truck being a smaller one also makes the potential for sway greater. When towing my 692 with my Dodge Dakota, trailer sway was a real problem as I crested hills or on curves, or when a semi passed. The way this was solved was to move some weight forward in the boat when towing. Actually the fix that worked the best for me was to go to a full size pickup.

You don't need to be that extreme though! LOL!!
