Towing a Float w/ Tundra

We've towed our Mardi Gras float with my Tundra the past couple years with zero issue. However, we built our own float this year and it is bigger, longer, and heavier. Imagine one of the large floats in the BR St Paddy Day parade..... dual axile.... double decker....
My Tundra is 5.71 CrewMax..... anyone think we would have any issues with towing or braking?

Check with competent legal counsel before proceeding.

This is something you need to be positive about. People will kill you if you break down on a route

as long as you stay under 5mph you will be fine. Maybe keep the hood popped open (pull hood latch release from inside but don't unlatch the outside hood release) to get more airflow to the radiators.

I doubt very seriously your float weighs more than 5k-6k lbs.

You'll be fine. With the amount of beads and shite people throw back at the floats, I don't understand why you'd want your personal vehicle out there.
