Pulling a trailer weighing at or near the truck's towing limit is a performance issue and maybe a reliability issue. But, the REAL weight issue is loaded pin weight and potentially exceeding the rear GAWR.

You need actual loaded weight on the truck's rear axle to determine remaining carrying capacity available to handle a realistic pin weight.
