A trailer including a trailer frame, a hybrid gooseneck trailer hitch tongue, and a coupling. The tongue may include I-beam stanchions connected to the front of the trailer frame, extending upward and leaning forward, with engineered I-beam necks extending forward from the tops of the stanchions, angling toward each other, and then curving downward and terminating at the coupling. The engineered necks are made from two plates. One plate defines forward and middle neck portions, and the other plate defines a roughly triangular rear neck portion. The roughly triangular plate is non-coplanar with the other neck plate and with the web of the stanchion. Lower and upper flanges are attached or welded to the lower and upper edges of the plates, thus defining a gooseneck profile. The lower flange profile may have four approximately linear sections smoothly joined by three curved sections.
