Towing the M37 with your 1/2 ton is unsafe. While I sympathize with you on fuel prices, it is nothing compared to the legal liability you'll face in a accident involving towing beyond your Chevy's spec's while it is overloaded. You run the risk of a citation - and then having to get the 2.5ton anyway. My local law enforcement informed me that flat tows are now illegal in PA - I'd check by you before trying it. Finally, the M37 weight will push you when you try to stop on a flat tow - and your truck's brakes were not designed to handle the weight you propose plus you mentioned downgrades! This sounds like a scary situation.

Please ask around for help or find a truck heading your direction empty - see links on PW home page to Antique Tractor trucker page or just spend the extra $$ on diesel.
