I recently made a 200+ mile trip with a WC51 on a 15' trailer. Tow vehicle was my '84 suburban (6.2 liter diesel... no turbo... doesn't break any land speed recourds, but gets the job done). Starting out I found the trailer kind of squirrelly above 55 mph... remembering a good friends advice to always have plenty on weight on the hitch, I moved the WC forward a couple more inches and everything smoothed out. And I'll second what ID Chris says... brakes on the trailer... with that much weight behind you, you'll need them.
Of course... your results may vary. :-)
