At 500 lbs weight behind me my concern wouldn't be power but braking ability. You get into any kind of downhill situation and you won't be pulling the trailer, it will be pushing you. The same can be said about going uphill, if the power fails the trailer will be towing you backwards. You're best, and safest, solution is a bigger, heavier tractor.
