I've done it, and blown out the rear window in the cab because I forgot 
to check carefully when making a sharp turn.  I was told to mount the 
hitch right in front of the rear axel for best weight distribution but 
that brings the gooseneck even closer to the cab.  If the trailer is 
really heavy and long, the weight and length ratio between the truck and 
trailer wouldn't be good which could cause safety (braking) concerns.
