i guess as far as the trailer goes... . i would think more of needing it on the maintenance side of it if you are only going to be using it on your property but having a trailer is ALWAYS nice to have around to move things..... it is common place for many backhoes to be on a 24k dual tandem axle gooseneck or even tagalong ... this truck will have no problem pulling and STOPPING once a brake controller is installed... . take the time to do it right... if i was in your neck of the woods i would certainly do it for ya just to pull somethin heavy!!
