The GVWR rating of typical 1/2 ton pickup is far below what is necessary to pull loaded two axle car trailer. The trailers that can be rented are built like tanks and will carry a LOT of weight. Altough they usually have brakes on the trailer, those on the truck are too small. Hence the requirement of commonly refered to 3/4 ton rated truck.
