If you plan to offroad that Corvette in your avatar, I'm sorry to say you are going to get stuck.
Sure, civvy 4x4s can come, we've had guys bring POV's before and they did fine!
May have the opportunity to help out a small business with getting a vehicle(s) for hauling small loads locally. Most, if not all of their stuff gets moved on pallets, so loading/unloading would primarily be by forklift. The owner wants to move as much as possible, without getting a semi-truck...
Have a CUCV M1009 that I want to buy, that lancerobson has me interested in. Just need to shake the dollar tree and see how much falls out before I make the rally with a new toy.
I'll be there, might have green iron with me this time, but that's dependent on a couple paychecks I haven't received yet. Either way, I'll be there Friday around noon to Saturday night or Sunday morning.
There are a few trailers I'd look into:
M345 10-ton trailer
M989A1 HEMAT 11-ton trailer
They are NOT going to have a 15-ton rating you are looking for, but they are heavy enough to handle heavy stuff. For recovering 5-ton trucks, I'd recommend flat towing behind another 5-ton truck, or have a...

God that's beautiful. Too nice to bring to any rally I attend, that rig would get all muddy and dirty inside from mud and dirt on the boots. But still, I gotta hand it to ya, best looking MV RV I have ever seen!
$3K for a stripped down model?
I think I speak for most of the offroaders I know when I say: if I need a Jeep trailer, I'll spend less money on a surplus one, thanks.
Actually I know someone who injects a little water into their deuce intake to reduce the EGTs. But that's an exception! :)
I think the whole concept of introducing alcohol into the diesel fuel is pointless. It's a waste of good alcohol that could be introduced into MY fuel system!
