I know a guy who pulled an old 60 ft mobile from Ontario Canada to Cochrane Alberta with a 3/4 ton chevy gasser years ago. Had to have me pull it into his property with my 3 ton gravel truck. The gasser gave up right at the property line.I don't know how he got away with it.

My brother-in-law's parents had an implement dealership. They had a cabover GMC semi w/a tractor on the trailer. Semi died and they pulled it 10 miles back to town w/their 76 3/4 ton GMC. Said they had to rebuild the tranny shortly after that.
