That's what I thought - but was wondering if anyone has come up with a viable solution.

Yes, it's called a trailer.

But even if you were able to, the truck is way to underpowered to pull anything on a gooseneck. The alphas are the only ones with enough power to have a chance. And why are you wanting to use a gooseneck? whats wront with a pull behind or a pintel hitch trailer?
