Without looking at any other figures, over the limit is over the limit. Period. To make things worse, depending on your model of coach, you likely don't even have the 5000 lbs. The hitch rating is the absolute max you can tow. But your limit may actually be much less based on the GVCW. You have to do the numbers of your weighted coach against the GVCW to see how much capacity you have left. You may be surprised to learn that despite having a 5k hitch you can only tow 2-3k.
I think you mean the GCWR.
What you can tow = GCWR - Actual Weight of MH (With everything loaded)
