I wouldn't do it. Maybe be with my 2019 Ranger, I would consider it. With my 2011, not a chance. It's easy to get moving. Stopping is the problem. A long down hill and hot brakes are a bad combination.
Then there is the issue with too much cross wind and not enough truck (not heavy enough) to deal with it. People with long travel trailers and their new Rangers are discovering this problem. They were within tow limits but the cross wind catching the side of the trailer gave them a wild ride.
